There is artwork by myself, Zach Miller, and Art Evolved founders Craig Dylke and Peter Bond. There's a nice interview with Craig and Peter as well. That's our headline there on the cover: Paleo-artists get creative.
My Mythical Flying Trilobite Fossil III (that makes up the current banner above) gets over a third of page 65 - seeing my own images in publication never gets old. Finding a feature article in the 7-11 in my Toronto neighbourhood is awesome. Being in there with online friends and artists I respect is shiny.
The issue itself is a treat, including the cover article about mass extinctions. Hadn't though about it before, but crinoids like the ones on the right of my banner have actually made through the 5 worst mass extinctions of all time. Fascinating stuff.
Thanks to Peter and Craig for inviting me into this online adventure at Art Evolved, and thanks to Carolyn Gramling for recognizing the next wave in art about our planet's prehistorical fauna.

Awesome! I agree too, seeing my name in print never gets old. I hope you are able to find many more avenues for your artwork!
My first reaction was "awesome!!" but now that seems a bit unoriginal.... fantastic!!!
Shiny indeed!
Craig had his silly happy grin on when you sent him the scans, he's certainly quite pleased with himself. It's very cool to see Lillian up there in print!
btw, I do like your sketch in the current art evolved gallery, she's like a more science-y jessica rabbit :)
w00t!!!!
Thanks everybody!
