Bob Nicholls
Robert Nicholls became a professional natural history artist in 1999, after successfully completing a Master of Arts Degree in Birmingham, Britain. Today he is one of the world’s most highly respected natural history artists with a reputation for producing unique and exciting palaeontological artworks. His illustrations, murals and 3D models are exhibited and have been published throughout Britain, Europe, Asia and North America. His portfolio contains projects for National Geographic, numerous books with global distributions, several renowned universities, many museums (including The Rocky Mountains Dinosaur Research Centre, USA), and in June 2001 Bob was chosen to be the artist on set for the BBC2 television series “Live from Dinosaur Isle.” Bob has developed his own method for doing this by reconstructing the subject from the inside out. First he examines the fossil remains, then reconstructs the skeleton, and then adds the muscles and internal organs before attempting to render the complete animal. The result is a modern and believable reconstruction of an extinct creature.
