I read a while back how dromaeosaur claws might have helped their young especially clamber around in trees, and wanted to explore that idea in a painting! It's a pretty wide image, so make sure to click to see the whole thing!

Growing up, shows like “Walking w/Dinosaurs” blew my tiny mind. The way things were filmed, where you felt as though you were just an observer in the scene, has shaped my own sense of composition. Plus, dinosaurs are cool 🦕
