Description i got 8oo pageviews... well its over 800 now..more like 824 but you know :/ i had problems with this drawing for example ive been a bit depressed and also i had to use two different pens that were two different blues... that pissed me off alot and possibly made me cry three times.... but anyway i used a drawing of another Dartist octopuss for a quick reference because i completely forgot what that eight legged thing should look like... ill link her here: [link]
and that is all... besides from im not proud of this octopuss >
***
edit: i have over 1000 views and around 45 watchers who are some of the most interesting people and underappreciated artists all of them have commented and showed their love and support for my art and made me feel proud of myself. i can now make something and feel accomplished you guys have helped me more than you know

words can not express my emense joy that i feel towards your comment, that was deffinatly one of the best comments i have ever recieved but the best thing of all was that you enjoyed it. and its true that its a sad octopuss because i drew it while thinking of my beautiful friend who is going through depression. i dont really think i am an artist but as long as what i draw pleases people thats more than enough

GOOD SIR! If you create then you are CREATIVE, if you make art then you are an ARTIST! This is art & you should be more proud! Even if you can't see all of the beautiful merit the simple fact that you placed time & effort into make it worthy of appreciation, I don't just comment my amazing comments on any old piece!
I'm sorry to hear about friend, I have battled those demons. They aren't easy but it sounds like he/she has a wonderful friend in you & that can make all the difference! If I had been around people who drew me super awesome octopi I think I would have broken free of my depression a lot sooner!

i like being able to draw because i can drawbeautiful things that only exist in my mind but people only judge my outside, because they dont understand how i think.also i am not good with helping people with depression when i keep falling back so art is my safety.

I like how you explain that, that's how I feel too. I think if there ever was a definition of art- this would come close!

I think it's very well done. The shading is fantastic and the detail is incredible! I didn't see where you messed up. And I hope you feel better.

me too, my improvement started when i got told to stop drawing manga/anime.... i think thats when i discovered i suck at manga/anime and started drawing my own things.. its also when i discovered i suck at writing stories.

Flotter [2011-11-23 21:34:28 +0000 UTC]

Don't be so harsh on yourself! I think this is absolutely fine pen work and the different blues which I can't even tell gives it even more tonal blues making the piece more interesting I think I love how you gave the tentacles the extra lines giving it depth and you did the shading really really well! Great great job on this
