Octopus, Greeting Card

Ella struggles with mental health, including anxiety and depression. Art has become a means of calming and slowing down her busy mind. She has always been interested in the natural world and nature documentaries, enjoying glimpses into the fascinating worlds they inhabit. Her art gives her focus and motivation.

Watching the blue planet documentaries sparked an interest in fascinating and otherworldly marine life. I wanted to draw inspiration from this and found this octopus particularly striking. I enjoyed trying to capture it’s rich colours and interesting textures.

Ella's greetings cards are printed on high-quality 330gsm Fedrigoni card.
