fibre friday: octopicus

octopicus, originally uploaded by ebbandflo_pomomama.

This summer has been a tailspin of busyness with not much room for making stuff-ness. And I have a group exhibition to take part in at the beginning of September so I really need some carp to show.

Carp btw is that dear old Etsy-ism, the self-deprecating "buy my crap".

I already had my subject, the hexapus, and have spent most of the year drawing cephalopods , tentacles and suckers. All I needed to do was translate the preliminaries into a (grand) work (of art).

So far, this is the result - watercolour transfers.
Pretty but not as much as I'd hoped for.
Time to get moving creatively.
