This is "Karatopus". My karate chopping, Kung Fu master, side kicking cephalopod! I came across a photo of the cutest little octopus who looked to me like he was mastering his best karate moves. He was just missing a few things....so I added a high side kick, the white gi, defensive arms and the black, red, and white color scheme to fit the vibe of a dojo.....voila, Karatopus was created.
This is my son Reed's favorite Octopus design of mine which is perfect because he was part of the inspiration for this one. We put him in Karate when he was a kid. He became obsessed with Bruce Lee. He owned every one of his movies and had posters of Bruce plastered across his walls. So this design is a tribute to my son and the late and amazing Bruce Lee.
3 HIDDEN HEARTS....
Did you know that Octopuses have three hearts? Yep, its true! Its one of my favorite things about them. As in all of my octopus paintings, I've hidden 3 hearts in each design. Can you find them?
2 HIDDEN LADYBUGS....
Each of my original artworks have two hidden ladybugs (which represent my kids) hand painted somewhere on the side of the canvas.
