Been Busy Working, Adulting And Starting On A 3 Week Job Seeker Course To Help Me Do More, Non-art Related

Been busy working, adulting and starting on a 3 week job seeker course to help me do more, non-art related adulting, so not done that much art. Here's scene i drew like 15 years ago mashing up something from The Future Is Wild, Ice Age (the movie) and BBC's Walking With Beasts. Top left is a saber toothed wolverine or badger pressing a flock of chicken like, flightless birds off a cliff. Bottom left is a sabertoothed cat cub waiting in anticipation of it's mother to kill an unsuspecting mammoth or mastodont having a shower. More more drawings and sculpture updates will be posted soon👌 #art #artist #artistofinstagram #artistoninstagram #paleoartist #paleoscene #fantasy #throwback #idrewthisasachild #childrensdrawing #drawing #lookingback #reminiscing https://www.instagram.com/p/B3hiBnslWrs/?igshid=o8zxiqksk41v

A teensy bit late for #fossilfriday in my own timezone but it's not too late for some of you! Here's a part of my collection of actual fossils; some from where i grew up here in Buskerud, Norway, and some are from the Jurassic Coast, England. First up, there's the two ammonites...or bivalvs?...or..mollusks.. that i found while on a fossil trip when in 2007, from the Jurassic Coast, which is a famously fossil rich coastline in England, UK. The rest of the fossils are from Norway, where the majority of fossils you can find are mollusks of various forms, and some trace fossils of early sea creatures. The largest fossil found here I believe was a 0.3 - 1 meter long eurypterid, or seascorpion as they're known as (tho icthyosaurs, plesiosaurs, and a pliosaur dubbed "predator x" and other Jurassic marine life has been found on the Norweian governed part of Svalbard). These mollusks i excavated myself as a child from rocks right outside my yard with a regular hammer or other rocks. Some i could just poke right out of the rock. I don't have that much info on these things cause i haven't really looked into these things in the likes of 12 years🤷‍♂️ #fossil #fossils #mollusks #invertebrates #tgif #amateurpaleontologist #jurassiccoast #norwegianpaleontoligy https://www.instagram.com/p/B5wKYT3lGSA/?igshid=1x6jrwy8v2nah

Next up on the unicorn tree, we have an, as of now, unnamed species, descended from the unoceratherium (2 image). This species was more adapted to open grasslands than it's predecessors and the two last lines of unicorns, both its descendants, or very close relatives. The previously three hoofed feet are now mainly monodactylous, it's other digits being lifted off the ground, like the artiodactyle posterially positioned toes. It's horned is larger, slightly curved, and is now "twisted" in a corkscrew manner. This species likely went extinct from preassure by climate, hunting, and being out competed by bovids and cervids, and also the other equids like the larger wild horse. . This design is based more off on the split from the equid family while they still had 3-toed hooves and had moved into open grasslands, than the very early split from the forest dwelling ancestors mentioned in my previous post. #art #artist #artistofinstagram #artistoninstagram #paleoartist #fantasyart #unicorn #fantasyscience #fantasy #fantasticbeasts #conceptart #creaturedesign #creaturedesigner #creatureart #wip #workinprogress #sketchbook #sketch #drawing #magicalbeast #magicalcreature https://www.instagram.com/p/B4Kn3hsHaC2/?igshid=ooqk5x5q2by5

*goes to bed for five years*

Kelenken is doing a lot better after some more work and support from super sculpey soft. Still hot lots to do, but it's getting there. Decided to go for some larger tail feathers after all after looking at Jack Mayer Wood's @thewoodparable kelenken painting. I'm positive, but I'm also working out more and more stuff i want different with it😬 #miniature #artistofinstagram #artistoninstagram #paleoartist #sculptor #sculpture #supersculpy #paleoart #terrorbird #art #artist #jurassicpark #jurassicworld #dinosaurart #iceage #iceageanimal #kelenken #kelenkenguillermoi #paleontology #supersculpey #wip #workinprogress #phorusrhacos #phorusrhacid #bird https://www.instagram.com/p/B4fQLf_F82_/?igshid=6meiu984l90k
