An exhibition featuring original large scale paintings of Australia's megafauna by Australian wildlife artist, author and paleontological illustrator Peter Schouten AM. Peter Schouten has an international reputation for his specialised area as a Paleontological Reconstructionist, rebuilding a fossil species.
