And so the first anniversary of the formation stream series ends and we can remove Hell Creek from the list. I had ideas for an HC piece for nearly a year but only over the last few weeks came this composition really together. #paleostream #paleoart #sciart #scicomm

Hello, my name is Brennon Valdez, the Hell Creek enthusiast. If it pertains to the ecosystem this formation and others represent, I will be there. I will post regularly starting early 2024- looking forward to sharing what this small world has to offer.
