Description
In 2001-2002, I was working on a series of dinosaur skeletal drawings for a field course that was in the works. The trip ran once and these drawings have been sitting around on a cd ever since. So now I'm putting them in my DA portfolio since they're doing no one any good in my sotrage devices.

As all young artists did in the '90s and beyond, I learned about technical drawing of dinosaur skeletons from Gregory Paul, who learned from Bob Bakker, who got the idea for black outlines around skeletons from Charles Knight and others. I tried to avoid swiping Paul's poses and experimented with a variety of other stances. These drawings are fairly crude now that I look back on them, but they helped me learn a LOT about skeletal anatomy, scientific illustration, and how much I dread the errant stroke of a black pen.
