About David Prus
Expertise
I can answer any general questions about dinosaurs and on prehistoric mammals in the Cenozoic. I also know a bit about the media's various depictions of dinosaurs and their inaccuracies. I don't know much about "microfauna"-small animals, or about Paleozoic besides some knowledge about Permian animals. Plants are right out, I'm afraid.

Experience
I have been interested in dinosaurs for most of my life, own a large collection of scientific papers and books on the subject, and am a member of the Field Museum in Chicago.

Education/Credentials
I am in college, but studied biology and geology both in high school and as a personal effort.

Paleontology (Dinosaurs) - identification of the artists of these illustrations

Expert: David Prus - 6/19/2009

Question
hi, I wonder who is the artist(s) of these illustration of prehistoric animals

Answer
I have the first one in an old Time-Life book, but I have them all boxed up. Most websites don't credit it at all. However, I do know it's at the Smithsonian, and a quick search gives me the one website giving the credit: J.H. Maternes. I have no other information to my knowledge, other than the location of a copy in the Agate Springs National monument.

I hope this helps.
