This week the #InsertAnInvert2024 prompt is crawler, about shellfish who can drag themselves over surface like the spectacularly coloured lined chitons (Tonicella lineata), beautiful, tiny marine mollusc of the North Pacific. I don’t usually make reduction prints but I think I might otherwise loose my mind trying to capture the complex patterns. Each 5 cm long animal has zigzag purple or black lines on 8 valves 🧵1/n

The next shelled creature prompt for #InsertAnInvert2024 is a crawler - an invertebrate which can drag itself across surfaces. I cannot resist the spectacular lined chiton (Tonicella lineata) which have amazing, varied, complex multicoloured patterned shells. 🧵1/2
