This velociraptor model was originally featured in the exhibition Dinosaurs: Ancient Fossils, New Discoveries in 2005. Museum curator Mark Norell recently discussed new evidence that dinosaurs, once thought to resemble scaly lizards, were in fact fluffy, colorful animals. Check out the video here.
If you’ve got a window with a bad view that doesn’t get much sun, why not turn it into a diorama like this? A cute little prairie dog scene could brighten your day. From the Carnegie Mellon University Museum.
With NYFW here, I’m absolutely over flowing with inspiration. Visual artist Charles Matton gives us a look into these miniature spaces, which were memories from his own life. Using materials such as wood, glass, plaster, and paper Matton’s creations give us a sense of what he felt during these parts in his life. Whats even more incredible is how he scaled them down to such a size and still give off the same emotions as they did in their normal size.
