This painting is a about a great finding, Arthur the Archeologist went on a expedition to the U.S. upper states and he was digging for months, first he found a huge tooth, a good findings, so he knew after the first one, he will be able to find more of them. He kept working for months until he found a graveyard of bones, they belong to mammoth and saver tooth tigers. Now he will be able to keep lots of them and donate some to the museums.

  4. Very nice painting Arthur. From an artistic standpoint, the rhythm in this painting is outstanding (those three arcs formed by the tusks and spine are very nice). From an archeology standpoint you have a tremendously interesting collection started. If you get a chance, go to Washington D.C. some day and visit the Smithsonian's Natural History Museum, you will be thrilled to see archeology in the process.

  5. Thank You Sheila for your comment, Arthur has few of books on fossils and he has lots of fossil paintings.

    Carol thanks for your comment, Arthur loves the mystery of the findings and usually he adds an imaginary story.

    Every photo tells a story thanks for your comment and there are a few collectors mentioning about Arthur and a story book.

    Stephen thanks for your comment and Arthur can not wait until he is older to find a trip with an expedition. Probably Washington will be the place for him.
