An octopus at the bottom of the ocean looks at us

Idea of work
This time I wanted to try a different technique. And as always, out of the chaos of lines, my new character appeared — an octopus. It was interesting to draw it, octopuses, in my opinion, are one of the most mysterious underwater creatures.

Technics
I tried to barely use an eraser and avoid straight lines. As always in the process of drawing, I had doubts about how to draw further, I was afraid to ruin everything or overdo it. I thought for a long time whether it is worth making the background much darker or leaving flickering, whether it is worth detailing everything or not, I hope I made the right choice))

Video
I also managed to shoot a video of how I paint. I hope everyone will enjoy both the process itself and the music thanks to which everything is perceived much more interesting.
