Dryptosaurus is one of the many dinosaurs unfamiliar to most people. Due to limited and fragmentary material, not much is known about this elusive predator- despite being one of the earliest carnivorous dinosaurs to be discovered.

This linoleum block print shows the fearsome head of Dryptosaurus with a dazzling blue tongue. The negative space carved into the block makes for a highly detailed plumage of feathers. While not based in any scientific material of the animal, this image draws inspiration from the Blue Tongue Skink and fellow Tyrannosauroid Yutyrannus to create a highly speculative representation of Dryptosaurus.
