Today's random portfolio artwork is a life-size model of a small Arthropleura (40cm long – they grew to 250cm long), which I built for MUSE – the Science Museum of Trento, in 2014.

IT’S OUT! My giant gorgeous book, Bugs, a Skittery Jittety History is out in the world!

Kirkus 🌟 review: “Aspiring entomologists, paleontologists, and artists won’t want to miss this one.”

My mother’s review: “wow this is a lot of information, like an entomology 101 class.”

And LOOK at the beautiful art Gordy Wright made for it! It’s even prettier in person.

Anyway if you like bugs, check it out.

I think my quality of life would be measurably better if we still had Carboniferous-sized bugs around. I want to see farmers letting herds of Arthropleuria graze in the fields, Meganeura being trained the same way as in falconry, and swimmers having to watch out for eurypterids.

Today's not-so-random portfolio artwork (following on from Arthropleura) is a life-size model of a Pneumodesmus (15cm long), which I built for MUSE – the Science Museum of Trento, in 2014.

Your thoughts on arthropleura?

If i ever saw one in real life I would shit myself and cry for mercy

That being said holy hell what beautoful units!!!

A shame we don't have enough oxygen in our atmosphere to suit their needs anymore like we did 300 million years ago

I love millipedes and centipedes so seeing one the size of a refrigerator would be Incredible

Would love to hear your thoughts!
