This original painting showcases the beauty and intelligence of the octopus. This creature’s intricate design, along with its mesmerizing patterns, has captured the imaginations of people for centuries. The painting serves as a striking representation of the octopus’s intricate features and captivating presence. I wanted this depiction to be more abstract and contemporary. I also wanted the octopus to not have its own color but to take on the abstract colors of the background. They can camouflage and change color, and I wanted to portray that in this painting. Throughout history, the octopus has been a symbol of wisdom, mystery, and power in many cultures. Whether displayed in a home or office, this piece of art is sure to draw attention and spark conversation. Its striking colors and bold lines, paired with an action drip abstract background, make it a captivating piece of art. original painting was made in 2017
