paleoart
Paleoart (also spelled palaeoart) is any original artistic manifestation that attempt to reconstruct or depict prehistoric life according to the current knowledge and scientific evidence at the moment of creating the artwork.〔Ansón et al., (2015) Paleoart: term and conditions (A survey among paleontologists) in: Current trends in Paleontology and Evolution, 28-24 pp.〕 The term paleoart was introduced in the late 1980s by Mark Hallett for art that depicts subjects related to paleontology.〔Hallett M (1986) The scientific approach of the art of bringing dinosaurs back to life, in: Czerkas SJ, Olson EC (Eds.), Dinosaurs Past and Present 1. Natural History Museum of Los Angeles Count in association with University of Washington Press, 97-113 pp.〕 These may be representations of fossil remains or depictions of the living creatures and their ecosystems. The term is a portmanteau of “art” and the ancient Greek word for old.

The work of paleoartists is not mere fantasy of an artist's imagination but rather consists of cooperative discussions among experts and artists.〔Catherine Thimmesh: ''Scaly Spotted Feathered Frilled: How Do We Know What Dinosaurs Really Looked Like?'' Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2013, 57 pages with paleoart illustrations by John Sibbick, Greg Paul, Mark Hallett et al., ISBN 978-0-547-99134-4.〕〔http://www.theguardian.com/science/lost-worlds/2012/sep/03/drawing-dinosaurs-palaeoart〕 When attempting to reconstruct an extinct animal, the artist must utilise an almost equal mixture of artistry and scientific knowledge. The artist James Gurney, known for the Dinotopia series of fiction books, has described the interaction between scientists and artists as the artist being the eyes of the scientist, since his illustrations bring shape to the theories; palaeoart determines how the public perceives long extinct animals.〔Gurney J. (2009) Imaginative Realism: How to Paint What Doesn't Exist. Andrews McMeels Publishing. p. 78.〕
