NMFOP talk

3:32 pm

That’s New Mexico Friends of Paleontology, not the Fraternal Order of Police. This Monday night at 7:00pm, I’ll be giving a little presentation for the October meeting of the NM Friends of Paleontology. I think the title of the talk is going to be “An Artist’s view of the Triassic,” but I may have to pull a last minute switch and call it “Sketches of the Triassic” since, as usual, I haven’t got as many polished pieces together as I would have liked.

Still, I’ve got a good handful of concept drawings, preliminary studies, and works in progress that should provide a sneak peek at some of the exciting goings-on in the Exhibits Department at the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science. The New Mexico Friends of Paleo. meetings are free and open to the public, so if there are any interested readers in the Albuquerque area, feel free to pop in on Monday!

  1. Ah, and I have to live in New Jersey… Will the talk be translated into any kind of blog post (please)?

  2. Hi Brian -

    Well, I wasn’t planning on converting the whole talk into a post, but I’ll definitely string along a series showing some of the sketches and artwork in-progress…sit tight, more phytosaurs are coming soon!
