Artist’s notes:
The Orange-Spike Polycera was completed on 11.11.2013. I’m putting together a collection of nudibranches, and the subject I chose were somewhat at random – usually I select them based upon geography, how often the animal might be encountered or how popular it might be as a pet or otherwise. With sea slugs, this Pacific coast where I live. The drawing is based on a photo by Gary McDonald and was used with his permission.
