I’ve taken my frog crab (Ranina ranina) linocut and made a repeat pattern. You can find it in the minouette Spoonflower shop, so you can get frog crab fabric, wallpaper and more. Plus I entered it in today’s challenge: Crustacean Core!

Pattern made from a random smattering of images of my frog crab on a pink background to create a repeat pattern. Many copies of the repeat pattern are shown so there are hundreds of crabs.

May is crab month for #InsertAnInvert2024 🦀 & the first prompt is “true crab.” Time after time shrimp like crustaceans have evolved crablike forms (through a process called carcinization) & do a good job of pretending to be crabs, but this odd looking fellow is the real deal, a true crab. My red frog crab (Ranina ranina), also known as a spanner crab or Huỳnh Đế crab, is hand-printed on Japanese kozo paper. 🧵1/n
