| About this Artwork: .An octopus cruises the reef searching for sushi... I created this undersea art by sketching the octopus form and combining it with a photo I took snorkeling the reefs at Turks and Caicos several years ago. Here's a cool article about octopus intelligence: http://www.boingboing.net/2010/02/01/the-secrets-of-octop.html The fabrics are 100% cotton, in marbled, batik, and print styles. Constructed with combination piecing, satin-stitched applique, and fused raw-edge applique. Mounted on a stretched canvas frame, wired to hang like a painting. |
