Description
I've been living in San Francisco for almost 6 years now. There are so many great things about the city and the Bay Area. And thinking about it, what subject could I have possibly painted about other than this awesome landmark... and I'm obviously not talking about the giant octopus.I have uploaded a couples sketches I did while brainstorming this painting: [link]

Thanks !!!!!!
That's funny, people don't usually notice the tower inside his head. I love to hide little things like that in my paintings

reminds me of the movie It Came From Beneath The Sea, partically the scene where the octopus attacks the bridge

I think he is. Giant squid are happy once they find something to chew on

Thanks, I'm glad I could make you smile. Life's too serious and complicated, this is why I like to smile when I paint

Thanks, for a change this one came out exactly as I had imagined it - I sometimes screw up my colors and things don't work as well as I wish they would...
