I started drawing an octopus every day since October of 2010 - over 700 and counting! Check out the archive view for the full effect. I haven't been updating as much recently but please stay tuned for more sporadic cephalopods!

You can also find prints and originals of my pieces on etsy.

apologies…

I’ve been working on a number of octopuses but I’m away from home and unfortunately neglected to bring all my necessary fancy art accoutrements. Will be uploading them all this weekend hopefully. Sorry for the delay, my dears!
