Genie in a bug lamp

Been trying to learn to paint the fucker. Unfortunately my right elbow disagrees with the concept of bending rn so progress is slow but i think it's going surprisingly ok!

Just finished! “The Branch Managers,” oil, 24”x30”.

Three years in the making, EXTINCT is a 220 page collection of my palaeoart. Find it here: dragonsofwales.etsy.com/listing/4381...

I'm just happy there is not one, but two, rather sizeable family-friendly, social events integrating science and art, with diverse line-up of creatives and educators.

are you just going to do this for every generation

"Dinotopia, Francine on Lunch Break" (back again with my #Dinotopia streak. Just a #doodle in between bigger pieces. #Art #Dinosaurs #sauropod

Question: What's a good, up-to-date dinosaur book with good science and art for an elementary schooler or middle schooler? Got some niece and nephew birthdays coming up.

review the games you play if you want more indie games. even a single review can help an indie studio. and if you go through someone's catalogue and review several....? it helps so much more than you can imagine for small games.

this is still the realest thing ever said about america

Exciting news! I was interviewed by @currentbiology.bsky.social for their Q & A section, where I talk about the future of palaeontology, dangers of AI in education, social media and science communication. Featuring, my doodles! cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822(25)01552-0

🐶Growing up too fast

We need MORE science communicators doing good science communication, because boy oh boy are there a lot of grifters and pseudoscientists out there now. Watch this conversation between @flintdibble.bsky.social and Professor Dave (is Dave on BSky?) www.youtube.com/watch?v=8b8c... #scicomm

Everyone say "I love you, Bem" OR ELSE.

The marine facility of Paleoparque de Lisboa is slowly expanding, the largest animal of this developing section being Styxosaurus! Her name is Bubbles, after her tendency to exhale small bubbles in front of the glass near guests. Nobody knows why she does this, but it sure is cute! Art by Luzim.

Oh hi guys!

Fake spiderwebs are a micro (and macro)plastic deathtrap. I would advise never using them www.smh.com.au/environment/...

Preview of my latest #paleoart piece: a baby bison flees the deadliest predator of Ice Age Europe. Harrowing, harrowing stuff.

Do you think Grevy's Zebras are neat? Do you think I can run 10k in a few weeks despite barely training for it? If either of the answers to those questions is yes, then please consider chucking a few quid towards the fundraiser. I might buy you a beer afterwards...if I survive. Cheers!

A aum sits down on the steps of his apartment to take a smoke break away from his family. He looks across the street at a pair of teenage boys making a ruckus and scratches his neck in annoyance. He’s told them off a hundred times before in his mind, but they’re asking for another telling off…

New #paleoart for #FossilFriday: someone spilt a load of Neave Parker all over this painting of Styracosaurus. Whoops. (I should really draw some ceratopsids found this century, but the Styracosaurus silhouette remains awesome, 112 years post-discovery. Note the non-speculated frill asymmetry.)

Dracovita: Leaf Eels #digitalart #worldbuilding #fish #dracovita

forgot to post them lol, been making some leaf eel models n animating em so i don't get rusty. #blockbench #dracovita #minecraft #fish #fishart

Just for fun, some #paleoart of Ichthyosaurus communis predating belemnites. I deliberately left the brushwork on this one a little looser than usual to give a sense of speed and movement. #sciart #ichthyosaur #fossil #paleontology

The Salotian rhinoceros (Sphenorhinus acerus) has long occupied a contentious placement within the rhinoceros family tree. However, a landmark paper by Reyes et al. last year delivered a surprising verdict for the phylogenetic placement of these island rhinos. #salotum #specevo #worldbuilding
