There's plenty more to come.
I think I included a T-Rex in there.

These are among the best dino pictures I've seen anywhere! - The solo T. rex is shown in a perspective view suggesting it's only about 20' from the "camera" (artist) -- too close for comfort! You're lunch!
- Love all the Brachs, anywhere they show up.
- The water-pond gatherings suggest a lush prehistoric environment.
Is there any way to know which artist(s) made these?

@bric.
When I got a hold of these images I'd googled something like dinosaurs or dinosaur species and got them from the images section. I'll try and find out what I can and will let you know.

9th pic down is a Dimetrodon. Technically speaking, they're not dinosaurs.

9th pic down is a Dimetrodon. Technically speaking, they're not dinosaurs. I see what you mean Talira, they actually lived about 50 million years or so (give or take an ice age or two lol) before dinosaurs, during the Permian period, and this was before the first Dinosaurs had started to evolve. though it looked superficially like a dinosaur it was a big reptile.

Dimetrodon is actually more closely related to mammals than it is to reptiles.

But didn't mammals start to rise after the dinosaurs were wiped out?

Dimetrodon belonged to a group called mammal-like reptiles. I suppose you could say they were halfway between mammals and reptiles. This group existed into the Triassic before finally going extinct and being replaced by true mammals. Since dinosaurs, at that time, were the dominant land animals, these early mammals were very small and likely nocturnal. They remained that way until the dinosaurs died out at the end of the Cretaceous.
