Getting closer and closer on this one, almost to the details stage where everything really snaps into place. This piece is for shows with the @unseenocean.bsky.social #deepsea #deepseacreatures #deepocean #deepseaart 🐡🦑 #art #acryliconcanvas #brittlestars
A galaxy of spiny brittle stars to captivate you for a moment, with a few strawberry anemones thrown in for good measure, at the Monterey Bay aquarium, California

More thinking about #BrittleStars. Inspired by Alister Hardy’s paintings of Brittlestars at the Continuous #Plankton Recorder Survey, #Plymouth. Sampling the stripy arms with #BeadWeaving.
A five sided disc in pale and dusky pink beads has five ‘musky pink ‘arms’ radiating from the five points. The whole thing is made of woven beads an is approximately 15cm across as shown by the green gridded mat it is sitting on.
Thinking about #BrittleStars and doing some #BeadWeaving today
Image of a starfish. A yellow-orange creature with five thick, finger-length appendages in a roughly radially symmetrical formation.
A brittle star. This one is brownish. It has five long, serpentine limbs extending from a central pentagonal hub in a roughly radially symmetrical formation.
Zoology hot take:
Brittle stars are just starfish (sea stars) which have made their way through the Amigara Fault.
