I mostly post images from the streams here but most actual work that I do happens on paper. This is a painting I did in 2017 for the publication of a new plesiosaur from Germany.

This Lagenanectes is a basal elasmosaur with some funky dentition. The teeth in the lower jaw erupt sideways out of the bone instead of sitting on top as they usually do.

The government adopted the long-necked, sharp-toothed 12-metre elasmosaur as the emblem on Thursday, adding to the list of provincial symbols.

The designation follows a five-year recognition effort by paleontology enthusiasts and a provincewide public poll in 2018, in which the elasmosaur received 48 per cent of the vote.
