…or “Octopied 37” if you’d prefer…
…today is the 9th anniversary of my starting to contribute to the WordPress blogiverse…
…so rather than another two pages of 4/8 colour pen scrawl from last year…
…here’s the latest piece I’ve finished….
….this has been sitting, incomplete for over a year!…
…I think my return to nightshift has given me the motivation to get back to making lots of stuff…
…brace yourselves….
…I break my “what?-is-lockdown-over-and-I-was-so-busy-painting-that-I-didn’t-notice” silence and post….
…the last “octopied” piece I completed before disappearing down the rabbit hole that is my current obsession…
…I’m on the final stretch now…
…one more piece to complete…
…cosmetic tidying up to do…
…the overly complex framing to make
…and then I’ll have some “spare” time….
…maybe I’ll do a post or two…
…no rash promises….
