Julius T. Csotonyi

In 2009, his illustrations were incorporated into the recently restored permanent exhibit, the Age of Dinosaurs section of the Earth History Gallery in the Manitoba Museum (Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada).

In 2008 he completed a 64-foot-long (20 m) mural for the exhibit Dinosaur Mummy CSI: Cretaceous Science Investigation of the Houston Museum of Natural Science, featuring a mummified Brachylophosaurus nicknamed "Leonardo" (the Guinness Book of World Record's best preserved dinosaur).

Several of Csotonyi's drawings can be seen on signs along the Alberta's Fossil Trail, commissioned by the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology (Drumheller, Canada). In 2007, he was commissioned by this museum to illustrate their new ceratopsian permanent exhibit in Dinosaur Hall. He also produced the main illustration for the Tyrrell Museum’s website.

Csotonyi was born in Hungary. His family moved to Canada in 1978. His first drawing at age three was a dinosaur illustration, and he continued drawing and painting as a hobby throughout his childhood.
