I have seen these making the rounds, I drew these in 2017, and I am an amateur when it comes to paleobotany illustrations but I am flattered that these pop up in some journals and posts now and then. One day I hope to expand on this area.

While thankfully many people like or bring paleobotany into the consciousness of paleoartists, and I myself try to open people up to the fine arts I think there is still an untapped potential when it comes to geology in paleoart.

According to the fossil record the Kem Kem flora included a wide variety of angiosperms. Although tree ferns and smaller ferns were also present. At the water's surface there were Marsilea and an unnamed member of the Nelumbonaceae.

Fossil plants are an informative and super cool topic for artists, and it really helps when paleoartists put time in to communicate paleobotany so other artists can improve their work. Big thanks to for her informative 2014 blog on DPF fossil plants

January 14, 1801, birthday of French geologist & palaeontologist Adolphe-Théodore Brongniart. His pioneering work on the relationships between extinct and existing plants has earned him the title of father of paleobotany🌿 https://t.co/1ocnwm5U5w

New post out tomorrow! "The Petrified Fern" by Mary Bolles Branch is about how time may reveal the worth of an apparently "useless" thing, like a very small fern. Featuring super awesome guest art by !

Williamsonia! Aka the quintessential member of the Bennettitales, a group of cycad-like seed plants. I did this pretty quickly, so the lighting and detail could be a bit better.
