Been having crap tons of fun in the studio and at the museum this past month. This is a photo of a dinosaur near and dear to my heart. It is the first dinosaur that I ever excavated. It is called Suuwassea and is in the collections here at the Academy of Natural Sciences. This painting is my first color reconstruction of Suuwassea. Just last night I put the final highlights on it (not shown here).

The painting is a bit more painterly than my more graphic style. I will be doing this a bit more in the future as it has been really fun to play with one subject for an extended amount of time.

Enjoy,
