      I love all of the entries here! You all are very talented.

      I've been very discouraged lately, thinking that illustration is going nowhere. I don't know if any of you ever get that feeling, these contests help me, stay a little motivated.

                          So many great illustrations this month. This was a truly fun challenge. Thanks again to all who helped me decide on which image to use. I chose the one that I liked best in the end though. I think of my time as a young kid and having my grandfather bring home a little live octopus one year for supper. It squirmed and wiggled and tried to get out of his bucket. I never ate it but they did (the adults). Anyway, drew this little guy trying to escape a dinner party... Hope you like it!
