Today's inspiration is my next painting challenge. After the fun I had with the Croak Hunter challenge, I was looking at my Swamp Horror and trying to decide on what to do with it. I searched for pictures of an "albino octopus" and everything I found was pretty uninspiring. Basically they looked like white, semi-translucent squid. Not only boring but incredibly hard to paint convincingly. So then I was inspired to search for purple and pink octopi and I came across this photo. Magnificent! I am very keep to try this paint scheme. CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!!!
