Mesozoic Art II
Bloomsbury Wildlife (Verlag)
9781399412216 (ISBN)
Our knowledge of how dinosaurs and other extinct species looked is continuously evolving with each new palaeontological discovery, as is the dramatic art that depicts these ancient worlds. Palaeoartists now have access to more information than ever before, allowing them to achieve greater levels of accuracy in their work.
Using fossilised material and the latest scientific knowledge, palaeoartists visualise and recreate creatures from the prehistoric world – they put flesh on the bones of long-extinct species and their environments. It is through this imaginative artform that fossils can be brought to life in fresh, breathtaking detail.
Mesozoic Art II presents 25 new leading paleoartists who present life in the primordial past through a broad diversity of artistic styles and techniques, from traditional graphite pencils to cutting-edge digital art.
Arranged by portfolio, each piece is accompanied by an extended captions by the highly regarded palaeontologists and artists Steve White and Darren Naish.
The artwork featured in this stunning book offers so much more than images of dinosaurs: it also showcases the world they lived in, the other animals and plants that would have been a part of the species’ ecosystem, and their place in the history of life on this planet.
Steve White has worked in the comics industry for 35 years, as editor, writer and artist. He has been in love with dinosaurs since he was four and drawing them since he could hold a pencil. He now draws them on a full-time basis. Darren Naish is a vertebrate palaeozoologist, author, public speaker, illustrator and technical consultant. He is the founder of the hugely influential blog TetZoo and lead consultant on the groundbreaking Apple TV+/BBC Studios documentary series Prehistoric Planet.
