Does "Parent #1" and "Parent #2" work? I don't think American English is this artist's first language so they may not perceive the full connotation of the words the same as yourself.Β

How the hell would you have named it then? Turtle Female #1 + Turtle Female #2 = Sand crab???
He used turtles because of their shells being able to represent colour palettes, with the use of baby turtles representing the mix of the two colour palettes because *le gasp* children's physical appearance depends almost entirely on their parents.
This isn't heteronormative and it isn't childfree hating, for these reasons:
1. They're turtles. They need a female and male to reproduce. It's simple biology, or did you not learn that in school?
2. You don't want children? Literally no one gives a fuck. He didn't put baby turtles in here just to say to you that you must play your role in human survival and do the straight frickleΒ frackle without a love glove.
3. As slinkydoodle mentioned below, they're fucking turtles.
Get off your fucking high horse and stop being so fucking oversensitive. Not everyone in the world is against you. Not everyone in the world gives a fuckΒ about you. You are only 1 out of 7.5 billion people. Open your eyes and realise that.

My Mom has a job as decorator. In her business your 'Beauty Spot' is called 'Eyecatcher' because it catches the attention of the costumerΒ .Β
I think it's a nice word to describe that effect andΒ I like the way you use it in your artΒ .

You have presented a neat way of looking at colour theory (with "turtlish" one and the following colour article), and for that way, I have to "tip my hat to you".Β Β Β
You have given this a tremendous amount of thought -- and I think you have presented a more coherent model than what I have read from some of the other (even more established) colour theory experts.
But I am wondering if we can take your color model one step further, and add a counter or opposite colour to your beauty spot for use in the background or edges of shapes that you do not want the viewer's eyes drawn to.Β Perhaps not an "ugly spot" but at least acting as a limit to the desaturation of colours on the palette?Β (The underbelly of the turtle that the eyes of the viewer should not dwell on?
