Pacific Octopus

This artwork studies the Pacific Octopus, part of an ogoing collection call "Ocean Friends" with a quiet sense of detail and flow. The body rests at the center, while arms extend outward in curling lines that feel both free and deliberate. Each sucker is carefully drawn, creating a rhythm of texture that contrasts with the smooth expanse of the head.

The eye draws attention as a point of calm, watching without expression, yet full of presence. Around it, the arms weave like dancers in water, tracing an unseen current.

The drawing is not only a portrait of a sea creature but also a meditation on the life hidden beneath the surface. It invites reflection on the intelligence and mystery of marine beings and the delicate balance that allows them to thrive in the ocean’s depth.
