Joe Taylor is an artist by profession with credits in illustration, logo design, epic murals, and sculpture. This background in art has opened the doors to many museum fossil collections. His ability to restore and replicate fossil specimens accurately has made him invaluable to many public and private collections and this access to the inner sanctums to the heady world of paleontology has given him a unique body of critical information. Joe has spent far more time working directly with fossil specimens from all over the world, than many of the "experts" in the field. He believes that what you know about a fossil is as important as the fossil itself. The combination of these two make the Mt. Blanco Fossil Museum a rare and valuable experience or as one visitor said, "To say I was impressed with the Mt. Blanco Fossil Museum is an understatement". Many visitors are amazed that a museum of this quality could have come together in only a month. Joe attributes this to the various talents of his family and friends who worked tirelessly to make it a reality. His collection of information and fossils spans twenty years and is what has convinced him of his position of young earth creationism. Many fellow collectors and fossil preparators are shocked to discover that Taylor feels the fossil record actually shows the earth is only six thousand years old. He maintains that most fossils, especially those of dinosaurs, were probably buried in the worldwide flood of Noah only four and a half thousand years ago. |
