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

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
