also have no idea if i’ll have that as the background color, i’ve never had to do a wash that big so maybe ill just keep it white 💀

jacob 🧍 @jajeumm.bsky.social · 22d

this is hopefully gonna be a gouache piece that might be big? idk i’m still deciding between 11x14 or 16x20

thank you for organizing this!!

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)

jacob 🧍 @jajeumm.bsky.social · Sep 1

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

Black and white illustration of a cool squid with an interesting tail (?) on a black background

i luv when ppl show off their process especially from the first iteration to the final. the left is the first composition i had in mind, pretty similar with a few adjustments (like the lack of the third bird mid shit)

jacob 🧍 @jajeumm.bsky.social · Aug 10

i was definitely regretting it halfway through lol

For an assignment to show a “special view” of a natural process and in this case, I wanted to show an implied lifecycle of Leucochloridium variae as it cycles between two hosts: a black-and-white warbler and amber oval snails #gouache #Sciart

A planted scene featuring two black-and-white warbler on a stump. One warbler has a snail in its beak as the other looks at a soon to be eaten parasitized snail. Healthy snails are at the base eating bird poop.
