chrysanthemums and octopi

Well, the mutant flower tangent has died out for the moment. I had two paintings started last weekend and haven't touched them since...

Chrysanthepus

Spider Mum

Instead I've been working on an ink drawing of an octopus....

I plan on doing some watercolors over the ink... should have it finished tomorrow. I would like to say the flowers will be finished some time soon... but I've already started sketching a seahorse to go with the octopus so it doesn't look hopeful.

I seem to be incapable of settling on anything for a while :)
