Announcing 'All Your Yesterdays'

2 min read
Back in February, I submitted two pieces of artwork to Darren Naish, :iconjconway: and :iconnemo-ramjet: of Irregular Books for their speculative dinosaur art contest based on the popular response to their book "All Yesterdays - Unique and Speculative Views of Dinosaurs and Other Prehistoric Animals." 

I'm happy, humbled, and excited to say the results of this contest have been finally realized as a nearly 200-page tome titled "All Your Yesterdays" full of amazing art from dozens of awesome artists - and both of my submissions were included, much to my shock and delight, making it the first time my art has been published in this manner. 

The book is available now as a free PDF download on their website here: www.irregularbooks.co - you have the option to donate to the fine folks at Irregular Books for all their hard work with sifting through the literally hundreds of submissions they received to create this project. 

I also wanted to thank everyone for their advice, kind words and support. You are all the best!
