This is a mural I painted for our “Leaping Lizards!” exhibit. It is a comparison of the Alpha Taxonomy of True Lizards vs. the Phylogenetic Clade Sauria.

Custom Monogram Moss Art Wall Hanging greeted visitors as they entered Zzyzx Gallery of Natural Science. This specially designed sculpture was assembled from live moss and accented with natural preserved insect specimens. It lasted beautifully for 6 months… and could have remained hanging longer.
