ink. :)
My submission for the Calligraphy contest! I wanted to create an entry using my inkblot style, which seemed appropriate to the theme of Calligraphy. Octopuses/Octopi (these are both accepted spellings, but I came across the term Octopodes, and liked it best), also seemed very appropriate, being ink-producing animals. I created the illustrations with pen on matte board brushed with ink and water. Photoshop made it possible to put it all together. (May be resized)
