I am kicking myself in the groin for not having the idea to do this first! This is excellent! I see Mexican surrealism, I see Pollock-style drips, I see Gustav Klimt! Most of all I see you! Wonderfuly original art!

When you eat a few too many cretaceous mushrooms

Could it be possible? Ergot-like fungus has been found in cretaceous amber. But I not aware if modern ergot has any psychoactive effects. It may be possible that those Ergot-like fungus contained amides of lysergic acid, making them hallucinogenic, but this is impossible to prove and we don't have reasons to think that this was the case.
Agaricales fossils have been found in cretaceous rocks as well. This is very hypothetical but there could be some unknown tryptamines(psylocibin could be an example)-containing mushroom back then.Also, Amanita muscaria shows that tryptamines aren't the only way mushrooms have to be hallucinogenic.

As far as I understand, psychoactive agents have independently evolved in several different lineages of fungi, so I do not see why hypothetical mushrooms couldn't have psychoactive properties, even if modern groups did not extend back into the Cretaceous.

This is my favorite piece of paleoart I've seen in years! I love the blend of colors and anatomical precision!

Estás creando un nuevo estilo artístico al mezclar la hipnogogias ( o como se diga) con el paleoarte.

Digamos que es una mezcla de impresionismo con surrealismo y psicodelia. Un resultado curioso cuando es fusionado con paleoarte. Definitimante tuve en mente las sensaciones que provoca entrar en el mundo de los sueños (hipnagogia), quizas hay algo de eso en la obra...

That’s a beautiful interpretation of a ceratopsian, combined with abstract art.
