Cropped preview of a bigger #paleoart scene recently uploaded to #Patreon, featuring two Yutyrannus making something feel uneasy. Check out the rest of this image and heaps of other palaeo content for just $1 every month! https://t.co/7ZCiMy2k3x
There’s some really lovely palaeoart on @GreerStothers website 😍 https://t.co/6gRIZnYHHr
How unsurprising. Whenever someone brings up minority representation and the effects of colonialism in palaeontology or anthropology, the enlightened racist anti-woke snowflakes crawl out of the woodwork.
Only shows why we need more efforts like these. Go support @MEthnicPalAss! https://t.co/83t8QaVNga

Jokes aside btw, I'm not a palaeontologist or any kind of genuine authority over spinosaurids. 😂 I'm just some nerd who's obsessed as shit with drawing them and wants to let others know how cool these animals were too. 'Cause everybody needs more crocoducks in their life. 🐉🌊💖
📸The Palaeolithic representations appear mainly in two different panels, the main one located in the half-light of the cave’s vestibule, and a second one in the inner chamber. The main panel has 10 depictions, including several deer, two ibexes, one horse and one bovid.
Today seems like the kind of day where you just want to lament into the abyss, like the geologist in Edward Hitchcock's PalaeoPoem. Artwork by @Zooophagous.
Heard it was #PortfolioDay! I'm a Palaeontology graduate from England. I sometimes like drawing extinct animals, though I also do a little speculative evolution.
This week we do our most thorough de-bunking of Blathers yet as we talk about the dimetrodon! This prehistoric creature was not a dinosaur, it actually wasn't even a reptile at all .. 😮https://t.co/SgNKo1Xc6H

Reitmeyer et al (2021) provide a unique look at the women working on palaeoart at the AMNH in the early C20th. Margret Joy Flinsch Buba reconstructed Proboscidea and went on to sculpt Pope Paul VI. And here’s Elisabeth Rungius Fulda’s (what a name) beautiful 1923 Baluchitherium.

Miragaia longicollum.
A lonely specimen of this long necked Stegosaurid is walking around the beach, enjoying a sunny day,

And a reminder that #AllYesterdays itself is still in print; in fact, it's ten years old this year and we're considering the release of an updated, second edition. Buy it here... https://t.co/Ri0GXVgt6N #palaeoart #paleoart #books #dinosaurs #pterosaurs

We presented the PalaeoPoems project at @CanSVP 2021, and talked about how poems can be used for science communication! This graphic is a timeline showing the topics of all the poems we have featured so far, and is by @KatrinEmery.
