I've done a lot of digital painting in the last year but my true love is watercolor and graphite. I've got a couple paintings on the go now which I hope to share soon. In the meantime here's one from 2015, a common snapping turtle.

Phylogeny is one of my favorite subjects. Well of course, I study it. But it also connects you to every species that has ever lived on Earth! I drew this vertebrate phylogeny in 2015 as an undergrad. It needs many updates... https://t.co/JW7e8Z1RRb

This traditional Japanese moku hanga woodblock is about fieldwork. I'm playing with scale, colour, line & legends.

As a scientist who does science at sea, I've learned to recall we are in a small boat on the big ocean, like the tiny person in the paper boat.

And I will basically never get tired of making 'ankylosaur skull rainbowgrams' showing how the ornamentation differs between species, 1st in my 2013 Euoplocephalus paper & latest incarnation in the Zuul description: https://t.co/mUlArnpC03

I really love the I think folks are sometimes surprised when I say that I get to do a lot of art as a scientist, but it's true. I like coming up with interesting ways to visualize results in my papers. Here's a few favourites: https://t.co/xNowwyM1Qg

I haven't gotten back to doing these in a long time: I'm known for redesigning pop-culture depictions of Prehistoric animals (especially Jurassic Park ones) to be scientifically up to date, as a means to educate people on what they'd look like in reality.
