Day 002 / ORCTOPUS! Pt. 1

Unfortunately, I was only able to give a couple of hours of time to todays creative project.  The inspiration came near the end of the work day when I glanced over at a couple of co-workers who were looking at a picture of a creature on the internet.  It was called Sharktopus!   It’s coming soon to the SyFy channel and is to be directed by the legend of B-filmmaking, Roger Corman.  If you google image search the word Sharktopus you’ll find a huge array of amazing artwork and sculptures.   So, I decided to do my own rendition except I gave mine a little twist: This one’s half killer whale and half octopus, in other words – Orctopus!
 
On a side note – Today was officially my birthday.  I was going through some serious cigarette withdrawals today but I successfully made it through without giving in.   What a strange gift I’ve given myself.   It was not easy.   I’m experiencing very heavy eyelids, a wasted and tired feeling mixed equally with a pent up energy that just can’t seem to escape from my body.  That’s the withdrawal bit.  Wish me luck tomorrow!
