"My goal in this painting is to convey the feeling of exhilaration we all have when we see the fantastic natural architecture of the desert," Gurney reveals. "I wanted to capture its unique atmosphere of light, color and air." The result is this magnificent view of ace Dinotopian pilots riding the giant flying reptile "Quetzalcoatlus skybax" or as they are known on Gurney's lost island where dinosaurs and humans live in peaceful interdependence, the Skybax.
