I'm finally able to show my new cover artwork for the 10th anniversary 4th edition of DINOSAURS, HOW THEY LIVED AND EVOLVED, by Darren Naish and Paul Barrett (published by the Natural History Museum, London). The sauropod is the wonderful Amargasaurus. It isn't available yet, but it will be soon!

Today's marine reptile artwork features Platecarpus hunting Enchodus. It was commissioned by the The Children's Museum of Indianapolis in 2021.
