During this time period, the studio has always been a loose association of extremely talented and creative people who make up this team. No surprise, the studio is headed up by Tim Jacobus. Tim has navigated the studio from it&#8217;s early inception as a traditional illustrator for hire &#8211; using pencils, brushes and paint &#8211; into a fully functional digital studio, never forgetting that the core concept still comes from a simple scribbled sketch.<\/p>\n<p>Ideas are important, but they are nothing if you can&#8217;t execute.\u00a0Armed with the expertise in a wide range of graphic, authoring and publishing programs &#8211; and 35 years of leadership experience in illustration and design &#8211; keeps us one step ahead.<\/p>\n<p>Jacobus is responsible for well over 100 pieces of art. \u00a0Best known for his cover art work on the R. L. Stine <em>Goosebumps <\/em>series, Tim is responsible for creating the iconic 62 original series covers, followed by the <em>Goosebumps<\/em> series 2000, special edition books, calendars and other GBs promotional art.\u00a0<\/p>\n\t<p>Surprisingly, <em>Goosebumps<\/em> remains wildly popular today, 25 years after it&#8217;s debut in 1992, with new readers every year. Yet, for the &#8220;old&#8221; fans, this classic series still holds a special place in their childhood memories.<\/p>\n<p>Jacobus Studios is available on a limited basis due to an increase in demand, for illustration, animation, print and web design. Per project commission assignments are handled on a first come first serve basis. Now a few prints and sketches are available through our online store.<\/p>\n<p>We thank you for all your support over the years. Without your eyes to see, there is no art.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/jacobusstudios.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/head2.jpg\" alt=\"head2\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"542\" width=\"864\" title=\"head2\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\"  \/>\n<h2>Articles<\/h2>\n<h2>BBC Facebook Live Interview<\/h2>\n<h4>October 27, 2017<\/h4>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/bbcnews\/videos\/10155253984962217\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t    Watch Now\t\t\n\t<\/a><h2>BBC Washington Interview<\/h2>\n<h4>October 30, 2017<\/h4>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/av\/41811779\/goosebumps-illustrator-on-25-years-of-scaring-children\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t    Watch Now\t\t\n\t<\/a><h2>Vice Interview<\/h2>\n<h4>May 13, 2015<\/h4>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vice.com\/en_us\/article\/7bd9aa\/talking-with-the-guy-who-did-the-covers-for-goosebumps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t    Read Now\t\t\n\t<\/a><h2>CNN Interview<\/h2>\n<h4>October 15, 2015<\/h4>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.cnn.com\/videos\/world\/2015\/10\/15\/goosebumps-illustrator-natpkg.cnn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t    Watch Now\t\t\n\t<\/a><h2>Polygon Interview<\/h2>\n<h4>August 29, 2017<\/h4>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/2017\/8\/29\/16186220\/goosebumps-cover-art-tim-jacobus\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t    Read Now\t\t\n\t<\/a><h2>The Daily Record Interview<\/h2>\n<h4>Oct 25, 2015<\/h4>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dailyrecord.com\/story\/news\/local\/morris-county\/2015\/10\/25\/goosebumps-cover-artist-living-budd-lake\/74275656\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t    Read Now\t\t\n\t<\/a><h2>BBC News Interview<\/h2>\n<h4>April 17, 2016<\/h4>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/newsbeat\/article\/36053489\/goosebumps-the-latest-1990s-comeback-even-boggles-the-illustrators-mind\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t    Read Now\t\t\n\t<\/a><h2>Bloody Disgusting Article<\/h2>\n<h4>October 19, 2017<\/h4>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/bloody-disgusting.com\/news\/3410822\/exclusive-check-original-goosebumps-book-cover-sketches\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t    Read Now\t\t\n\t<\/a>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Studio For more than 35 years, Jacobus Studios has been a fixture in the commercial and book art world.
