        Thank you, such a fun subject to draw. Here is my octopus for the month. I called it: "Study Time" - So many arms to multitask but focused on one thing πŸ˜‰ I hope you guys enjoy the art! 0_1519348310470_Karine_FEBoctopus_SVS.jpg

                    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!

                                          @bdyanne I think we all feel discouraged at times. It's part of the growing process πŸ™‚ This is a cute idea. I remember walking in the rain and looking down at th epuddles and feeling liek I was looking into another world πŸ™‚ That's what this makes me think of.
