Changing Face of Science exhibition highlights ‘Punk Rock Paleontologist,’ Field Museum Dino Curator Jingmai O’Connor, PhD

Changing Face of Science is a series that highlights women and/or scientists of color who are breaking barriers in their field to challenge the typical idea of who can be a scientist. The show shares O’Connor’s path to science while highlighting her passions outside of paleontology, including music and sustainability. It features pieces from O’Connor’s personal collections, including her childhood sketchbook and replica antiques purchased in Chinese markets. It also features fossils related to her research, like a cast of prehistoric bird Qiliania graffini signed by Greg Graffin, evolutionary biologist and lead singer in Bad Religion, for whom O’Connor named the species.

One of my first pieces of paleoart, but still one of my favorites: Styracosaurus albertensis.

I mostly post images from the streams here but most actual work that I do happens on paper. This is a painting I did in 2017 for the publication of a new plesiosaur from Germany.

This Lagenanectes is a basal elasmosaur with some funky dentition. The teeth in the lower jaw erupt sideways out of the bone instead of sitting on top as they usually do.
