Working on new material for an upcoming exhibition at the end of June. It’s the end of the world as you know it (from a dinosaur’s point of view, obvs)

Have been collaging again at the awesome @ecc.edinburghcollageclub
Had an absolute blast cutting up bits of paper and sticking them on a square board. And I even found some dinosaurs to add to the picture.

More artbook drawings. A Livyatan; a basketball-playing raptor from Toronto; a nautilus; and a tylosaur I shall call Mary (not sure if there's a record of Cretaceous copepods but what the hell).

Artbooks are still available. DM for details.

Leaping nimbly into Fossil Friday here’s the first Neovenator for @neilgostling.bsky.social
almost done! It’s going to be tipping over a Polacanthus and this early Cretaceous medium sized Theropod preserves complex rostrum anatomy, with the paper linked below in the comments! #sciart #dinosaurs

The Wealden has a large diversity of Theropods, including teeth from the Dromaeosauridae. In this case restored as a 3 metre long animal, Nuthetes or Vectiraptor being the inspiration and Deinonychus the print file. These feathered Theropods are a joy to paint up, and couldn’t resist a WWD homage

So my first introduction to plausible U.K. Dromaeosaurs was a decade ago when Nuthetes menaced Dean Lomax at Stonehenge! I’ve restored these two as slightly more robust forms, and I’ve two more lightly built animals for an another display. Lots left to go but the stories are being told!

I’m back working in my beautiful studio space, right in the heart of Edinburgh city centre. Round the corner, to the left, is Edinburgh castle. I share the floor with a bunch of super talented artists. There’s a lovely vibe here. All thanks to “Outerspaces Scotland”.
