DRESSED TO IMPRESS #prehistovember2025 Jumping to a more recent prehistory to bring you a bit of #IronAge bling✨ This is a depiction of an #Iberian woman inspired by the Lady of Cerro de los Santos. Fully painted in #watercolor on 25 x 36 cm paper. Original painting for sale.

A FULL MEAL #prehistovember2025 This illustration is based on the #paleodiet of my ancient fellow countrywoman, the Red Lady of El Mirón, which consisted of meat, different kinds of mushrooms and salmon. She would have also completed her meals with vegetables and fruits available at the time.

¿Qué prejuicios tenemos sobre los Homo sapiens del Paleolítico?🤔 Dentro de nuestro programa “Altamira para escolares”, reflexionamos de forma crítica sobre las ilustraciones con las que transmitimos una imagen del pasado.  ➕Info: https://short.do/wU34aZ 🖼️@mlezcano.bsky.social

Who can join the #6thVCWAP? Absolutely everyone! The VCWAP aims to highlight the work of early-career women scientists and paleoartists. These are the voices we want to put forward! But that doesn’t mean others are not welcome: quite the opposite! 👉 We need everyone to make this event meaningful ⬇️

Had a great time last week talking about my workflow to create scientific reconstructions of prehistory along author Pedro Lima and researcher Verónica Fernández. I'm so looking forward to future collaborations with these wonderful people.

I'm hosting a little creative challenge for the third consecutive year and I'm bringing it here to Bluesky too. During the month of November I will be posting new illustrations for each prompt on all my social media. Please, feel free to join me!

Last week I taught at my first #archaeologydrawing workshop during the Tribus del Íber Fest in the north of Spain. ¡It was great! So thankful for everyone who joined me and spent a beautiful evening drawing, chatting about artifacts and discussing the role of #artists in #archaeology.

A paleo-commission from last year for the #experimentalarchaeology program for schoolers at @museodealtamira.bsky.social I designed the #illustration and the layout of the brochure in order to focus the attention on the pigments and tools used to paint the bisons within the #Altamira cave.
