Detail of my green vinyl Lino block being carved showing a protoceratops fossil next to a standing person and part of a velociraptor fossil. The woman’s torso and one extended arm is visible. Her hand remains uncarved but above it is a rodent.

My full green vinyl Lino block with carving in progress. A woman in slacks and sleeveless button down with collar is turned in a 3/4 view with her left side arm extended and right side arm bent and resting on the small of her back. She has short hair and appears brightly lit from one side. In front of her are the Fighting Dinosaurs fossils: a protoceratops and velociraptor entwined. Above her as-of-yet-uncarved hand is a rodent and behind that is a deinocheirus dinosaur.

The next #printersolstice2425 prompt is Calcium, so I’m thinking bones, fossils and palaeontology. My block in progress.

Any guesses who I am portraying next?
