Nudibranch stamps part 3 (o^▽^o)!!! I did some requested ones this time!! four of the Costasiella kuroshimae, or Leaf Sheep, requested by @existencebringsonlypain And four of the Flabellinopsis Iodinea, or Spanish Shawl, requested by @belt-critic (if you don't want to be tagged just let me know!!) I also added two of the Peltodoris Nobilis, or Sea Lemon, because they're my favorites :-) Once again, requests are open, and credit is not needed if used, but is always appreciated (◕‿◕)♡!!

Spanish Shawl

Flabellina iodinea

🔔 This nudibranch feeds on a species of hydroid (Eudendrium ramosum), which possesses a pigment called astaxanthin. This pigment gives the Spanish shawl its brilliant color, it shows up in 3 different states, creating the purple, orange and red colors found on this species.

Art Studio 1 Research: Biology of Slime (IDEA 2) PART 2

Artist Archive (both ideas): Markos Kay's aBioGenesis (2022)

aBioGenesis (2022, CGI-animated short film (57 secs))

Markos Kay's works exist in between art and biology, in this case creating a visual 'reimagining' of the theory that early cellular life originated from 'primordial lipids'.

Organic forms (droplets, bubbles, vesicles/vacuoles, veins, flowers, cells, etc.) could perhaps influence how my 'slime-inspired work' may look (abstract?).

Abstract/biomorphic animation is definitely something I may use for my own work.

Artist Archive (both ideas, but primarily idea 2a): Aron Sanchez-Baranda

1st Row (left to right) - photographic prints: Fundament, Pisaster ochraceus/Anthopleura xanthogrammica (2021), Hair, Gum and Blood, Stemonitis sp. (2019), Febrile, Urticina eques (2021)

2nd Row (left to right) - short film screencaps: Take me to your heart, Phoca vitulina birth remnants (2017), Higher class tissue, Octopus rubescens (2021), Proportion dependent, Anthopluera sola (2023)

3rd Row (left to right) - short film screencaps: Cell wall, Aplysia californica (2023), World entire, Anthopluera sola (2023), Transactive memory, Anthopluera sola under UV light (2022)

4th Row (left to right) - short film screencaps: Lap, Neverita lewisii (2021), Cooperation offer, Ophiodromus pugettenis lives within patiria miniata (2022), Sparkling reflective stacks of purine crystals, Flabellinopsis iodinea (2023)

Aron Sanchez-Baranda's photographs and films exist as both documentation and art.

His close-ups of fungi and marine wildlife abstract the natural forms of the subject, focusing on the colours, the patterns, the shapes and textures interacting with each other, and the glistening water, mucus, etc. of their surfaces.

This may perhaps play into the natural vs. unnatural, familiar/comfortable vs. repulsive?

Artist Archive (both ideas, but primarily idea 2b): Anicka Yi's tempura-fried flower sculptures and artificial honeycomb lamps

1st Row (left to right): Maybe She's Born With It (2015), ALZ/AZN (2015), Lapidary Tea Slave (2015)

2st Row - tempura-fried flower sculptures: Installation shot of all three sculptures listed about

1st Row (left to right) - artificial honeycomb (epoxy resin) lamps: Escape From The Shade 1 (2016), Escape From The Shade 7 (2016), God Make It This Time Or Never At All (2017)

2nd Row (left to right) - artificial honeycomb (epoxy resin) lamps: Mausoleum Of Easy Going (2017), Slippage Between Law and Art (2022), One Bright Pearl (2022)

Anicka Yi is another artist who explores biology and art, but more within the context of sensory immersion and how it may trigger emotional responses.

In the case of her tempura-fried flower sculptures, the strong smell of oil, tempura batter and decaying plants exudes from a hybrid between crystallised and molten/dripping forms (interesting to play with both shape/texture and smell).

As for her artificial honeycomb lamps, she transforms the 'honeycomb' into a 'draping cloth' while maintaining its texture and translucency - with colours ranging from softer and more natural to more vibrant and emotive (perhaps textured sculptures and light/colour for a tangible, interactive form?).

a while ago i had the idea of making a gacha game for weird ocean animals so here's another one!

the spanish shawl (Flabellinopsis iodinea) is a nudibranch (sea slug) that can be found in tidepools on the West Coast! their orange spikes are actually their external gills, and they also hold the stinging cells the spanish shawl steals from anemones when they eat them

Went to the tide pools down in Dana Point the other day and found this little beauty right near the stairs. Always fun to find a nude at the beach...and take its photo. Spanish Shawl Nudibranch - Flabellinopsis iodinea February 7, 2020

One stylish slug Today we're meeting one of a motley group of sea slugs called the nudibranchs (rhymes with 'thanks'), known for their unique, often complex shapes and neon-bright colours that help discourage predators. The Spanish shawl's fire-orange mane is made up of tendrils called cerata that mainly act as gills. But that mane also retains venom from the slug's prey—sea anemones—treating any would-be devourers to a painful sting. Should a ravenous sea star disregard these defenses and get too close for comfort, the Spanish shawl has a Plan B: By flapping its whole 5- to 7-centimetre body like a gelatinous wing, the nudibranch can flutter into open water for a quick escape.

One of the more photographed/popular nudibranchs is the colourful Spanish Shawl nudibranch, or Flabellinopsis iodinea. While almost if not all nudibranchs we have posted so far are Dorid nudibranchs, or nudibranchs whose gills are clumped together as an outgrowth on their back. The Spanish Shawl nudibranch is instead an Eolid nudibranch, or one whose surface is covered with outgrowths called cerata, all aiding in respiration (as well as breathing, the cerata are part of the digestive system and also are where stinging cells are stored). The bright orange cerata are where the nudibranch got its name, as they are reminiscent of the fringed shawls flamenco dancers wear. Don’t confuse their purple oral tentacles as their rhinophores, as the rhinophores are the two darker orange protrusions on their head.

They live in shallow water (Intertidal zone to 130 ft) in the Pacific from BC Canada to the Galapagos Islands. They grow to be about 7cm long, and feed on hydroids, which is where they get the astaxanthin pigment to produce their vivid colours. Spanish Shawl nudibranchs are one of the few nudibranchs that can swim, although they swim rather awkwardly.
