I process a lot of what’s going on around me through insects. Inspired by a good friend I made this drawing of a bombardier beetle spraying acid at ice. Abolish ICE

Palaeocharinus and a great icosidodecahedron from a few years ago, I think as lighting practice. I love trigonotarbids but something about their shape makes it really really hard to get the lighting right. #trigonotarbid #palaeoart

Koa is the second most common tree in Hawai'i, behind ohia obviously, and so there is just a ton of life with koa as the foundation. I could’ve fit in so many more bugs if I didn’t have a time limit for an exhibition…

jacob 🧍 @jajeumm.bsky.social · 06/12/2025

I’ve been itching to do more plant as habitat pieces and koa (Acacia koa) made the perfect subject. Featured are the many instars of the koa bug (Coleotichus blackburniae), the koa looper moth and caterpillars (Scotorythra paludicola), and a few parasitic wasp (Pristomerus hawaiiensis). #sciart

This piece was done interning with National Tropical Botanical Garden in collaboration with Tim Flynn and Amanda Vernon, to be used a cover for a field guide for common mosses found around the main Hawaiian islands. Super fun project and subject :)

Koolasuchus cleelandi Illustration! In this Illustration, I have depicted a scene of koolasuchus making a desperate attempt to flee the dangers of a fellow Koolasuchus. The seasonal flooding has brought new hunting grounds, and so more competition and fights for those hunting ground rights #paleoart

i really tried to find anything on what was going on with that tail thingy. the guess im sticking to is that it helps the squid resemble some type of siphonophore (i am biased)

yet again got a contribute to such a cool project dedicated to inverts!! this was my piece, based on a video of a Planctoteuthis (maybe?) squid from Schmidt Ocean #sciart #squid
