Inspiration, only in reverse

Over the Fourth of July weekend, we traveled up north to the land of Kansas to spend the holiday with family. It was a good time with lots of rain and fireworks and food.

Monday we visited a museum with my mom. One of the displays they had was all on dinosaurs, including fossils. :) This immediately reminded me of my statosaurs and so I took some pictures to show the "similarities" between the actual factual fossils and my recreations of them (+ statistics).

They had a t-rex fossil (not a complete fossil, but about half was actual fossil).


You can probably see the similarities between that at my t-rex.


They also had a triceratops head. Wow, that baby was huge!


Again, note the similarities.

Statosaurs

Recently, my husband and I have been working on getting some new embroidery designs ready to go. About 1 week ago I drew 5 new ones, and now we are vectorizing and digitizing them. We've completed 2 so far.

They are statistical distributions that have been turned into dinosaurs! I think they are wonderful.

Stegonormalus = Stegosaurus + Normal Distribution:


Chiceratops = Triceratops + Chi-Square Distribution:
