Oviraptor ~ egg thief 🥚🍳 . This was a design I worked up a while ago when looking at famous fossil discoveries which included the oviraptor found sitting on top of a nest. . This design is part of a much bigger themed piece which I look forward to sharing soon

A new arrival ~ 🥚🍼 . I’ve just started a new and exciting life chapter and I wanted to commemorate it with this newborn triceratops ✨🌿 . Life is going to be a bit different for me for the foreseeable but drawing will remain as my happy escape so I hope to be able to draw when and where I can ✍🏼

Dodo ~ 🦤🌛 . So exciting to hear all the news/research about Dodo’s being potentially nocturnal birds! It certainly gives a new perspective on how they interacted with their environment . I just had to have a bit of quick fun with this iconic bird and do a night version too ✨

Attenborosaurus ~ Attenborough’s lizard 👴🏻🦎 . Here is my finished piece for my tribute to Sir David Attenborough’s 100th year! I combined the plesiosaur named after him alongside my favourite quote of his which I think it very poignant and poetic alongside this marine reptile

I had a very brief moment to step away from my stall at the Lyme Regis Fossil Festival and picked up a few paleo goodies! I can’t wait to get on my wall and cover my iPad in 😁

Lyme Regis Fossil Festival 2026 🐚 . Last weekend I got to be a part of this incredible festival. It was amazing to see so many people - both vendors and visitors! . The support everyone showed for my art journey honestly blew me away, I can’t express how much motivation it gives me to keep going 🥹

A little bit late but Happy World Ocean Day! 🐡🌊🐠 . This is a little different from my normal prehistoric art but I’ve always had a deep love for ocean life and I’m working on a little personal project in the background which involves this Butterfly Fish (my absolute favourite when I was little) 💙

Attenborosaurus ~ 💚🐟 . After observing the celebrations throughout the weekend for Sir David’s 100 year birthday, I wanted to commentate it my own way by highlighting my favourite quote of his alongside the plesiosaur named after him 😊 . What a special man who has inspired and evoked so much in us

Spinosaurus ~ spine lizard 🦴🦎 . It’s been exciting to see the unveiling of the new spinosaur species ‘Spinosaurus mirabilis’ - a new unicorn for the palaeo community 🦄💀 . I thought it would be cool to look at the comparison between the two heads of each species!

Iguanodon ~ iguana-tooth 🦷🦎 . Its felt good to pick up my iPad again and get back to my hadrosaur series, especially after the recent exciting discovery of Haolong dongi! . It inspired me to look at my Iguanodon design and made me wonder whether I should look at with or without quills! #paleoart

Ice age tar pits . I thought I would share my initial sketch and composition of my next big piece! I’ve had a long time obsession with the La Brea Tar Pits and now I want to create a design to showcase this incredible fossil trap! . What do you think? You do like this elongated design? #paleoart

Prehistoric Planet: Ice Age ❄️ . I love it when you watch something that sparks your imagination and gets your creative thoughts flowing again. This new Apple TV series has done just that - the CGI and designs of the creatures are STUNNING! . Do you have a favourite scene/creature from the series?

Velociraptor & Protoceratops ~ ‘Mongolian Survival’ 🦅🇲🇳 . I unveiled this new design at @dinoconuk.bsky.social This is the first time I’ve combined two figures together to make a scene and I felt that the iconic fossil of these two would be perfect subject matter to try this out! #paleoart

(4/n) other artist whose work I was able to see and purchase at the event. Firstly, @emilyhiggs-art.bsky.social whose beautiful, stylised palaeoart I have admired for years. I picked up a few gorgeous pterosaur cards that you can see here.

Cool #paleoart : Sauropoda by @emilyhiggs-art.bsky.social. Not in her trademark folded style, but v fine & v Emily nonetheless! Another one of the prints I bought at @dinoconuk.bsky.social (technically @tpbunny.bsky.social procured this for me).

Artwork by Emily Higgs showing the heads, necks and sometimes bodies of several genera of sauropods of different sizes and colour ways, all looking towards the last of the image. There’s a small grey person icon at bottom left for scale.

The title text centre top is Sauropoda, subtitled Lizard Footed. On the left it says Herbivore, and on the right, Saurischian.

At the bottom is a key to the genera:

1. Nigersaurus, 2. Amargasaurus, 3. Bajadasaurus, 4. Shunosaurus, 5. Isisaurus, 6. Ceriosaurus, 7. Ampelosaurus, 8. Apatosaurus, 9. Diplodocus, 10. Camarasaurus, 11. Mamenchisaurus, 12. Ruyangosaurus, 13. Alamosaurus, 14. Dreadnoughtus, 15. Argentinosaurus, 16. Brachiosaurus, 17. Paragotitan

Now…I’m REALLY excited about this piece! . I loved how my recent pterosaur collection turned out and I didn’t really want to stop there, and now I’m taking a closer look at smaller pterosaurs hanging out together! . The sketch is complete, so now onto blocking the shapes out ✍🏼

Nyctosaurus ~ night lizard 🌌🦎 . 4/5 complete! . I looked at a lot of modern day sea birds for inspiration of this design and I noticed a lot had simple colour palettes or strong lines so I felt this would be suitable for this pterosaur…but I couldn’t resist a flourish of colour on the crest tips!

Emily Higgs Art @emilyhiggs-art.bsky.social · 08/07/2025

Tupandactylus ~ Tupan finger 🇧🇷👈🏼 . 3/5 complete! . I did originally think about putting a big ‘eye spot’ in the head crest of this pterosaur but I thought it would be interesting to look at how colours and subtle patterning could play a part in its display 👁️

Emily Higgs Art @emilyhiggs-art.bsky.social · 05/07/2025

Dsungaripterus ~ Junggar basin wing 🇨🇳🪽 . It was really exciting to come up with a colour scheme/pattern that included so much colour!! I got a lot of inspiration from hornbills and toucans . What do you guys think?

Tropeognathus ~ Keel Jaw 🦷🦅 . The first of my pterosaur collection finished! It’s been interesting to think about the possible colouration/patterns these creatures would have had, especially when their jaws had such a large surface area! . What do you guys think of this first design?
