Catching the tail end of #SciArtTweetStorm! I'm a spider scientist, photographer, and artist. I love capturing all the tiny details that make each arachnid unique! Sometimes I dabble in other animals when making figures for my research papers!

#AmazingArachnids: A mom and her #spiderlings! I cared for this Maevia inclemens (dimorphic #jumpingSpider) and her kids a few years ago. Many jumpers start out semi-transparent. look at the baby's biggest eyes--they are tube-shaped inside their head. #exploreTinyWorlds
