Sneak peek at some [unpublished] paleogeographic figures for a review paper on the Miocene-Pliocene Purisima Formation I am wrapping up - high school me would not have been prepared for how much of this stuff I end doing. I love maps!

It's CofC day at @CofCNatHistory and @cofc and to help raise funds to support fossil preparation at CCNHM, I'm donating 100% of proceeds from art sales (prints & originals - digital, watercolor, acrylic) to the fossil prep fund.
