First post of the year! It’s a pair of Citipati looking for a spot to nest. The colors are inspired by California quails.

The citipati are the lords of the funeral pyre and charnel or burial grounds, and are the skeleton companions of Yama, the Lord of Death. And yet, they are intended to be humorous or comic figures in Mongolian and Tibetan sacred dance, despite their gruesome appearance. This accounts for their dynamic dance poses and their smiling countenances. Citipati are most properly represented as a pair - one is male and the other is female, and most usually (though not always) they are thought to be brother and sister. This superb pair of dancing citipati is from 19th century Mongolia. The two are shown on a lotus petal base, and with an oval backing plate or aureole. The group is made from painted papier mache, wood, clay and cloth. Each citipati balances on one leg only with arms thrown up in joyous abandon. Each has three eyes (or at least empty eye sockets), and a crown of five mini-skulls, attesting to their high status among the denizens of the underworld. Their rib cages are particularly evocative with the gaps between the ribs being coloured blood-pink. They wear a green and a blue waist sash. Each holds an attribute - one holds a skull kapala bowl, and the other hold the upside down remnants of perhaps a small human. It is rare to find citipati from the 19th century represented in this way. More typically they are found portrayed on tsa tsa tablets or in tankas or other forms of painting. By the same token, the use of papier mache for sculptural works and masks was common in 19th century Mongolia, almost alone among the Buddhist kingdoms of Asia.

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...
The 2022 Korean translation of Locked in Time (@deanrlomax.bsky.social) commissioned me to colourise my 50 greyscale illustrations. "A stand against the sand" shows a #Citipati protecting a nest from an approaching sandstorm.

Monday #Dinosaur Facts!
#Citipati is a large Oviraptorid, and one of the biggest links between Dinosaurs and birds! Citipati have been discovered covering their eggs in their nests, as birds do!

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...
In 2020 I illustrated LOCKED IN TIME, written by @deanrlomax.bsky.social. Here's my "A Stand Against the Sand" painting, depicting Citipati on a nest as a sandstorm approaches.

Reconstruction layer by layer of Citipati osmolskae, an oviraptorid. From top left: A full boyd reconstruction with feathers. Top right: no feathers, just the skin. Top middle: No skin or body fat, just the muscle and tendons. Middle left: skeleton with outline of muscle and skin contours, in gray. Middle right: heart and blood vessels, missing all the intradermal and subdermal vessels and capillaries. Bottom left: nervous system and brain, missing the fine web of thinner nerves. No distinction here is made between motor and sensory nerves. Bottom upper right: pulmonary system, which involves a small, rigid lung and expansions of the pleura. Typically, this is all one big sac, the pleura, but here the compartments are shown. Missing include some subdermal diverticulae, and pelvic and caudal diverticular, which are not indicated in the bones. Bottom lower right: digestive tract. Missing, the urogenital system, as that would be sex-specific, as well as the glandular system, including the liver.

Still one of the most difficult and involved projects I've ever done.
The many layers of a reconstruction of an extinct animal, with inference and reference to living birds and crocs: Citipati osmolskae.
Yes, all of this is ink on paper.

A profile view of a male Citipati walking along the forest undergrowth with several hatchlings accompanying him.
Acrylic painting of the dinosaur Citipati, out for a walk with his hatchlings, much as how some modern ground dwelling male birds take care of their own broods directly! #paleoart #dinosaurart #citipati
