Dinosaurs!

For almost two months now I've been employed as a dinosaur expert at Dinosaur Quest here in San Antonio, which has renewed my interest in paleontology, especially drawing dinosaurs.  A long time ago (about fifteen years ago actually) I was a huge dinosaur nut.  I drew dinosaurs constantly, imitating my favorite "paleo-artists" Gregory Paul , Bob Bakker , Doug Henderson , and Mark Hallett .  But as time went on I got interested in other things and stopped drawings dinosaurs.  Then this job happened, and I was looking at dinosaur skeletons all day long.  So for the past month and a half I've been drawing dinos whenever I've had a chance.  Here are some of the better ones.  (And if you're waiting for more urban art, don't worry-- I've done some that I haven't had a chance to scan yet, and I'm also going to Dallas tomorrow with Linda to support her new book that came out yesterday, and I hope to do some urban sketching there, so stay tuned.)
