>> Squid ink pasta. If you could dye some dough red (beetroot juice?) you could do a (European) fairytale pasta; red, white and black. <<

You can color pasta in a wide palette.

>> And I know I've seen bread art with loaves made to look like turtles and teddy bears and the like. (Also, shaped pancakes and cookies.) I wonder if anyone's tried that with pasta? <<

I'm amused that modern people have rediscovered garden bread, and think it is new. It's one of the oldest forms of food art, LOL.

>> Blue-and-green turtle ravioli. Striped-flag pasta squares. Green-leaf pasta and 2d flower cutout pasta. Autumn leaf pasta in a mix of 2 or 3 shapes and colors [carrots, saffron, beetroot?]. Migrating geese shapes in a blue broth. Maybe swan or fish shapes again in blue broth with some short green angel-hair pasta... <<

Those are great ideas. You could easily make orange goldfish swimming among green grass.
