Jurassic Park and One Million Years B.C. dinosaur movie Triceratops design and rough size comparison study for DracoTyrannus. #JurassicPark #OneMillionYearsBC #Dinosaur #Retrosaur #Paleoart

Digital pencil style line sketches of the Triceratops from the two movies facing one another with the 1993 Jurassic Park Triceratops on the left noticeably smaller than the much larger and more retro 1966 One Million Years B.C. Triceratops.

Vote for #Orpiment for illuminated manuscripts! I'd like to invite the medievalists to spare 30 seconds of their time to vote in our yearly battle of the minerals to ensure this important pigment through the centuries doesn't lose out in the first round! #MinCup26 #artHist #medieval #scicomm

The Pabenham-Clifford Hours

England,
c. 1315-1320
MS 242

"Folio 2 v
Annunciation with John de Pabenham and Joan Clifford kneeling in the lower margin (Hours of the Virgin)

Underdrawing for the draperies is visible in the infrared image, as well as through the semi-transparent paint used in the Virgin’s pink mantle. This garment was painted with a mixture of an insect-based red dye, lead white and gypsum (hotspot 1), while Gabriel’s dark pink tunic contains a red dye mixed with chalk (hotspot 2). Gabriel’s blue-grey wings contain azurite blue and small quantities of an organic red, as can be seen under magnification (hotspot 4). The tooled gold leaf in the background was additionally decorated by painting a pattern of spirals with an arsenic sulphide yellow pigment, likely orpiment (hotspot 5)."

Art for your small spaces! I have a few small original seascape oil paintings that are still looking for a home. Available on my website: tishamark.com/shop #art #painting #SciArt #TraditionalArt

Original seascape oil painting by Tisha Mark, "Unmoored" oil on Ampersand Gessobord, 6"x6" (2026). This loosely painted abstract-leaning seascape painting is monochromatic (black & white). It has a wild textured sky over a dark, wild sea. There is much texture throughout the painting.

Original seascape oil painting by Tisha Mark, "Coastal Dream" 10"x8" oil on cradled panel (2026). A textured seascape painting with orange cloud formations in a bright blue sky over a dark sea with waves meeting a rocky coast.

Wilson's Warbler for @skyestuff.bsky.social ! A bright cheery migratory bird, what a fitting choice. Thank you for your #Waymakers donation! 🪶🎨 #BirdArt #SciArt All donations help immigrant kids in the US via @theyoungcenter.bsky.social ! Ends Sept. 30: youngcenter.donordrive.co….

Illustration of a Wilson's Warbler perched on a near-vertical branch in front of a sea of warm lush greens. The bird is mostly bright yellow with an orange tint to the face, a black cap that shines with subtle blue iridescence, olive-green wings and a gray tail. Its big black eye makes it look extra cute!
