24x48 Weathered Octopus - Original Canvas Painting

Starting working on this canvas quite a few months ago. Initially sketched it when I had nothing else to do during a roadtrip and later decided to bring it to life. Many many layers and lots of scraping and scratching and washing off paint and painting again were put into it until I was finally happy with the result. Its border is a light green metallic paint and i sealed it with a gloss paint.

Purple Owl Tree 12x12 Square Canvas Painting - For Sale

http://www.etsy.com/listing/98268577/purple-owl-tree-square-canvas-painting

I first painted this late last year on an 11x14 canvas and sold it right away. Since then, it's gotten more views on my blog than all my paintings combined. So I took that as a sign that it would be a good idea to paint it again. This time on a square 12x12 canvas. It seems that owls and the color purple are trending right now.

It is an original painting done with acrylics and metallic acrylics.

If you would like this same painting in different colors I'd be happy to do so!
