Original artwork description:
Some experiments show that cuttlefish tries so hard to merge itself with a checkerboard surrounding pattern.
I choose octopus eventually because its tentacles create more curves. If it was a cuttlefish then it would be just an oval shape in the background. But the thing is, even this creature can blend in 100%, it should have shadow under certain lighting conditions. In black squares I try to eliminate the edges. In white squares, the tiles have cool tone and the octopus has warm tone. So even the non-living thing and the living thing are all white, they are different white color.
Although I tried my best to match the digital image the same as actual painting but the color may vary due to different monitor and monitor settings. Please be aware of this fact.
Hope you enjoy this one. :D
