At long last I finished #Anomalocaris and #Cameroceras creatures for my #ImpossibleCreatures mod on Steam. Must say I am happy to return to modelling the overgrown lizards.

#Cameroceras textures - done, played it Safe and Brown... any crazy patterns on shell either looked too "painted on" or too muddy and hid the base texture, creature skin patterns are still a bane of my existence. Also slightly tilting down its nose gave it a more "dynamic" look. #ImpossibleCreatures

Cameroceras grayscale textures are pretty much finished, and animations are advancing as well. #ImpossibleCreatures #Cameroceras

Artist Biography

As a biologist and artist my pieces convey the wonders of the natural world. I have a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree from the University of British Columbia and an Honours Metal Certificate from the Kootenay School of the Arts at Selkirk College. I have worked and studied in labs for more than 20 years and still find wonder there. It is this curiosity and excitement for the natural world that I bring to my art. In larger than life metal microbes, metal origami birds, scanning electron micrographs in gilded frames, and framed fixed specimen slides. The invisible are made visible, the often seen are reexamined.














Humboldt Squid (Dosidicus gigas), also referred to as diablo rojo or Red Devil. They are members of the flying squid family and will fly out of the water to escape predators. This one is aptly made from scrap aluminium aircraft parts.

Oil Furnace Nautilus This sculpture was fabricated out of a 1950s oil burning furnace. It retains the original green colour and the Airco logo was fashioned into its eyes.

Cameroceras is an extinct cephalopod genus related to the pearly nautilus. This is a baby. Fossilized shells have been found that are 2 metres long, putting the total length to 4 metres! This sculpture is made from aircraft aluminium.

Road Sign Nautilus is made from a decommissioned road sign found at a local scrap yard.

Very excited to have my work in the Peninsula Gallery located in Sidney, BC.

I'd probably have starved to death if I was a cameroceras 🤣
I have a week playing this and I'm still at level 1.
But I can't help loving #prehistoricanimals #videogames 🥰
It gives you an accurate idea of how difficult it was for these creatures to move through the ocean.

No new paleoart at the moment but I want to keep this account active so I thought I’d share one of my favorites so far! #paleoart #art #cameroceras #orthocone
