We lose Dan Varner

Palaeo-art great Dan Varner has passed away this new year.


Tylosaur attacking a Hesperornis by Dan Varner

He was a very proficient and influential palaeo-artist, known especially for his reconstructions of prehistoric marine environments.

Dan will be missed, and we here at ART Evolved extend our well wishes and sympathies to his family and friends.
