For people who don't know: for several months now I draw one formation or fossil locality every Saturday. The next place we visit is chosen by a wheel of names, which we also constantly fill up again when a new formation is picked.

I try to make it as interesting as possible in my composition and choice of animals and I can tell you this series has been a great training when it comes to constructing these, how I call them, Menageries.

I have to thank a team of friends and colleagues who help behind the scenes with research, creation of size charts and conversation partners when it comes to deciding on the compositions of these pieces. Their help has been invaluable!

[reengeart]

third and last (for now) of my paleoart therapy pieces.

The sauropods in my artwork are inspired by Argentinosaurus. I imagine them as a migrating herd of dozens, if not hundreds, of individuals, reshaping entire ecosystems simply through their presence. Colossal giants, independent of other animals, unconcerned with anything else that might cross their path. So immense that to tiny flying reptiles and the earliest birds, they become part of the landscape rather than living creatures.
