From the reference files

Sometimes the photo reference is more entertaining than the final painting.


I'm posing as Arthur Denison. From Dinotopia: Journey to Chandara. The book is still currently available at Amazon, but the publisher's warehouse is sold out, awaiting a reprint. We have signed copies here at the Dinotopia Store.

    I believe if you threw a multi-color scarf around your neck you'd be a dead ringer for Tom Baker's 4th Doctor...

    I also totally thought "Tom Baker" when I saw this.

    I think we have found an overlap between your fan base and that of Dr Who. Wonderful illustration.

    I agree with Drew. And I'm thinking you made Arthur a tad thinner... just sayin'. :)
