The first painting has been recovered from those jack-a-naps at the Jejune Institute! Congratulations to Corissa Solis!
The Jejune Institute (which is really the entry point to the Games of Nonchalance) is a huge inspiration to this project. I went down the rabbit hole several years ago, and have a hard time describing just how awesome the whole experience has been. While the dinosaur painting is no longer at this location, I urge EVERYONE who has not taken the time to check out this experience to do so. It's the best way possible to experience the city, and it will give you quite a bit of insight into how I am thinking about hiding the rest of the dinosaurs.

Welcome to the 100 Dinosaur Scavenger Hunt!


About a year ago I completed painting 100 Robots. I had a lot of fun doing it, learned about my own abilities as an artist, and (most importantly) finished it. I've been trying to figure out what I wanted to do for a while for my next project, and I realized I wanted to paint some other subject matter than I like: Dinosaurs!
The main problem presented to me was that I didn't want to just repeat the same sort of thing, I wanted it to have an added twist to it. So, for this project all of the paintings are FREE. Of course, rather than just handing them all out, they will all be hidden, and you'll have to find them! While the majority of these will be hidden in the bay area, I plan on having some of my friends help me hide paintings in other cities, states and countries!
Check back at noon on Tuesday, March 8th for the first clue!
