Matthew P. Martyniuk is an illustrator and science educator specializing in Mesozoic birds and avian evolution.

Paul’s Predatory Dinosaurs of the World at his local library. His illustrations and diagrams have appeared in a variety of books, news articles, and television programs from Discovery, the Smithsonian, and the BBC, and he publishes the paleontological blog DinoGoss.
