Description This piece was for the dinosaur portion of my Nature's Narrative class.
The hardest part wasn't the dinosaurs. Dinosaurs are easy. No, the hardest part was the spaceship as this was my first time drawing one. Not wanting to get into all the technical details, I made the thing more ambiguous. Half in clouds and half in darkness, it leaves more to the viewers imagination.

Love it. Although, the Biblical accuracy in me says that Noah, being over six hundred years old, would have taken dinosaurs on the ark. Not adults, but young ones. Being six hundred, I'm sure he'd be smart enough for that. But, still, I think the picture is charming, in it's own way. I hate it when all the pictures I see have the animals we know today and don't include the dinosaurs as well. (Fun Fact: The word "Dinosaur" wasn't invented till the 1900s. "Dinosaurs" were called Dragons in the Bible, and there are even a couple mentioned, one in the book of Job.)

Beautiful artistry and really good work with the lighting.

Never mind half of these didn't live at the same time. Oh, there I go again, complaining about a species' time overlap while there's a freking SPACESHIP taking them away. Great work!

I saw this on another website of yours and fell in love with it, now that i can actually comment i just wanted to tell you that you are my favourite artist ever, this is my favourite piece, ever.

In my graphics course we have to choose an artist who inspires us, and I'm choosing to do you, i find your work so, imaginative and amazing. I hope you don't mind.
