The drawing started with the octopus, which in my mind formed an apt symbol for the many tentacled creature that is the Internet. It's also a sea-based notion in keeping with the nautical metaphor of the poem's title. I'm unabashedly quite fond of the little beasties heading the eight legs.

si può esporre il tuo charactere dalle cose che dipingi e scrivi...
tipo tosto!
ciao!
I think that's great!
Mille grazie Hanna. I'm glad you like my octopus so much ... it appealed to me very much also.
I need to look into doing the drawings in an electronic format. I think that would be more fitting.
Thanks entrepreneur!
Pretty great...;)
Hi Mee Moe,
Thanks for the comment ... I appreciate the input.

Great stuff. You try going into acrylics...expand the medium. It would work very well for that style of art I would think. Never say never. :-)

We have a big snowstorm hitting tomorrow so I'll say it now in case.... Happy New Year!
*insert "should" between You and try.
Brain's getting tired :-)

Hi JD,
My knowledge of artistic mediums is limited, but I'm sure a couple of my painter friends can set me straight on acrylics. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll definitely look into it.
No worries about the typing ... I have similar problems. Have a great New Year too! I hope the snow isn't too bad.
