The extraordinary paleoart of 余国梁 (Passion Charger) … and my relation with it!
Growing up as a budding surrealist, I remember with a smile that Alejandro Jodorowsky, my mentor in the seventies, dedicated a phrase to my work: “If it is not excessive is not genius”… well, this amply applies to the work … Continue reading

New Edition of Dinosaurs of Africa arrived today!
Just IN! Glad to report that Anusuya Chinsamy–Turan has updated her popular book, carrying all the weight of the edition herself! Very glad to continue to participate in her great work adding some new artwork… obviously most of the old … Continue reading
The Next Project will be coming from Mexico (again).
It was that time of the year, again. There were only two things that made would made us brave the elements and risk everything in these horrible pandemic times: going back to the Soteno family in Metepec and continue my … Continue reading
…and now for the Spinosaurus Apotheosis Downfall.
I will leave this here. Almost no words necessary… needless to say there will be comparisons and zoologists will know where this scene is coming from, only that it is at such colossal scale that is difficult to think of … Continue reading

Spinosaurus revisited.
Yes, this is the moment we have all been waiting for… the newest, most formal restoration of Spinosaurus, modified so it now includes the tail… and it has surprised many, but not me. The tail definitively depicts Spinosaurus as an … Continue reading
Popularising science… The right way!
Remember this? When I did this restoration of Sereno’s outlandish Spinosaurus, I could’t wait to hear the complaints… there were some but not as many as I expected! Now I have just purchased the new 1:40 scale Spinosaurus from the … Continue reading
