      @cynthia-bowman I like how you used the spaces in between tentacles to hold things. This is really clever!

                              @johanna-puhl Loving the details! And I also really like the colour scheme and the line-work. My lines always seem too harsh when the colour is added. I like how your lines sometimes have a bit of the colour of the subject in it. May I ask how you achieve that look? Do you work out the linework and then tweak the colours later or add the linework after you've finished colouring?

                              Anyway, I like your work! Followed you on Instagram 🙂

                                Thief octopus caught inflagranti. Trying to camouflage, but the ink leakage...

                                    Uneasy Hearts Weigh The Most.
                                    This is the name of a song by Dance Gavin Dance and also the title of my Octopus-Drawing. Even though the drawing itself has got nothing to do with the meaning of the song, I thought it's a funny coincidence that an octopus has three hearts. That's why I used it as an anchor. Anyway, I hope you'll like it!
