Dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals have always fascinated
people but they pose vast problems for the artist. How do you go
about recreating the anatomy and behaviour of a creature we've
never seen? How can we restore landscapes long lost to time? And
where does the boundary between palaeontology - the science of
understanding fossils- and artistic licence lie? In this
outstanding book, Mark Witton shares his detailed paintings and
great experience of drawing and painting extinct species. The
approaches used in rendering these impressive creatures are
discussed and demonstrate the problems, as well as the unexpected
freedoms, that palaeontological artists are faced with. The book
showcases over ninety scientifically credible paintings of some of
the most spectacular animals in the Earth's history, as well as may
less familiar species.
