Inktober 52 2025 - Week 38 - 'Squid'
Humboldt squid are known to be very dangerous at night, especially in groups. I imagine the mermaid version is much like meeting a red sea devil.

Erick James Artist Biography As a biologist and artist my pieces convey the wonders of the natural world. I have a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree from the University of British Columbia and an Honours Metal Certificate from the Kootenay School of the Arts at Selkirk College. I have worked and studied in labs for more than 20 years and still find wonder there. It is this curiosity and excitement for the natural world that I bring to my art. In larger than life metal microbes, metal origami birds, scanning electron micrographs in gilded frames, and framed fixed specimen slides. The invisible are made visible, the often seen are reexamined. Humboldt Squid (Dosidicus gigas), also referred to as diablo rojo or Red Devil. They are members of the flying squid family and will fly out of the water to escape predators. This one is aptly made from scrap aluminium aircraft parts. Oil Furnace Nautilus This sculpture was fabricated out of a 1950s oil burning furnace. It retains the original green colour and the Airco logo was fashioned into its eyes. Cameroceras is an extinct cephalopod genus related to the pearly nautilus. This is a baby. Fossilized shells have been found that are 2 metres long, putting the total length to 4 metres! This sculpture is made from aircraft aluminium. Road Sign Nautilus is made from a decommissioned road sign found at a local scrap yard.
Very excited to have my work in the Peninsula Gallery located in Sidney, BC.

#Humboldtsquid populations are greatly reduced in the #GulfofCalifornia, so ,their predators like #spermwhales and shortfined #pilotwhales have “effectively disappeared."

A large, red squid lingers close to the surface of a nighttime sea. White text around the squid reads, "Humboldt squid might try to drown scuba divers but they'd never take away education."
Humboldt squid are the iconic a-holes of the cephalopod world. Known for being large, strong, and potentially aggressive with divers. #humboldtsquid #scuba #hr899 #departmentofeducation
