Holy shit, this is exactly this book:

All Yesterdays: Unique and Speculative Views of Dinosaurs and Other Prehistoric Animals

There was a great podcast that pointed me to it: https://99percentinvisible.org/episode/welcome-to-jurassic-art-redux/transcript/

I think that's it. I've already done more searching than I intended to get the name of the book. You're on your own.

I wanted to be an archeologist when I was a kid because I loved dinos. This book speaks to me.

To whoever likes this sort of fantastical speculative artistry, one of the authors C.M. Koseman also wrote and illustrated All Tomorrow's, which is a similarly speculative view of humanity from the fictional perspective of a paleontologist in the unfathomably far future, after humanity spread to the stars and experienced an apocalypse that leads us down countless evolutionary paths. Content warning: Body horror, cosmic horror, but presented in an academic way.
