Daily Painting

created using watercolor (background) and pastel pencils

A few nights ago, I had a surge of inspiration. After declaring I was going to be in bed by 1am (I work in the morning and I always wake up exhausted after going to sleep at 3), I decided to read a bit from the Creative Thursday book and I had an idea to paint this. It was originally supposed to be an orange octopus, but sometimes things don't come out as planned. I really like how it came out, and even though I didn't go to sleep until two that night (I have to leave time for yoga before bed), the final product was worth it.
