Artist's notes: FINALLY! I know I haven't been adhering to the one drawing per day parameters of the challenge but this one took an incredibly long time for me to make although admittedly a fair amount of the delay was due to my own procrastination. Depicted here is a calming scene of a Triceratops drinking from a forest stream in the Hell Creek formation at the very end of the Cretaceous period. The other creatures shown here are Adocus (the turtle), Habrosaurus ( the snake like amphibian with exposed gills like those of an axolotl), Paleosaniwa (the lizard), and Pachycephalosaurus. Although I am quite satisfied with this work it does expose two of my weaknesses as an artist; plants and landscapes. I enjoyed this challenge overall and I appreciated how it allowed me to practice various aspects of both paleoart and traditional illustration with the wide variety of daily challenges, however there were a lot of my favorite dinosaurs that I did not get to draw and, I didn't realize this until the last challenge, but I did not include any Triassic dinosaurs at all. Anyway I'm probably going to take a little break from paleoart in order to work on some ideas I've been having for more artwork but don't worry, inevitably I will always go back to drawing prehistoric animals.
