My name is Teo Zirinis, aka HandsOffMyDinosaur. I'm a 35-year-old illustrator from Athens, Greece that loves to create quirky, out-of-the-box cartoons.

Animals have been a great source of inspiration for many of my works. Whether it's through puns or visual jokes, I've always enjoyed placing them in funny situations or daily scenarios that we can all relate to.

Here is a collection of some of my favorites that I've made over the years!

I’ve been fascinated by animals ever since I was a little kid. Reading nature magazines and watching wildlife documentaries were my favorite pastimes. Through them, I discovered a magical world full of diverse species, each with their own habits and peculiarities that I still find captivating to this day.

From start to finish I would say it takes around 2 to 3 hours for me to fully finish an illustration once I have a clear idea of what I will be drawing. This can, of course, vary depending on the complexity of the work, but I like to keep my illustrations as simple as possible. Brainstorming ideas is usually the longest part of the process.

I am currently working on an idea for a picture book project that I would love to bring to life, as well as a new range of greeting card designs that I can hopefully share soon!

I had a dog that would only poop if her head was behind a tree. Then we couldn't see her, right?

My dog hides behind a chair and we have to pretend that we can't see her. We keep calling out 'where's Fiona?' Until she pops out.

What they can’t see is the Sasquatch getting the medal for first

I recently learned that when ostriches do that they eat stones. They needs stones in their belly to digest food. And I also learned if their head is on the ground for too long, they die.

My cat, Stinky, thinks she's hidden from me if she hides behind the translucent window curtain. When the sun is shining through it. And her paws are sticking out.

The ostrich doesn't actually hide it's head in the ground. Cute picture.
