Ariolimax columbianus, banana slug is native to the forest floors along North America's Pacific coastal coniferous rainforest belt (including redwood forests) which stretches from Southeastern Alaska to Santa Cruz, California.

The Pacific banana slug is the second-largest species of terrestrial slug in the world, growing up to 9.8 in long, and weights of 4.1 ounces. Banana slugs have an average lifespan of 1–7 years.

Since i moved to the northern californian coast I have always seen them what i called “slugg’ing” I couldnt help but to want to do a design based off one of the many pictures i have of slugs on the redwoods when i hike. Being a transplant from the east coast it also gave rise to the fact that it just further embodied the stereotype that calfornians are all “zen” like.
