ArtistHybrid 50% animal 50% plant: blue-ringed octopus (Hapalochlaena lunulata) x octopus bellflower (Campanula takesimana “Pink Octopus”) Full width 16:9 illustration filling the entire image width of a hybrid blue-ringed octopus (Hapalochlaena lunulata) x octopus bellflower (Campanula takesimana “Pink Octopus”). The perennial flower hybrid is abundantly hung with octopus-shaped flowers in intense yellow with many tiny, electric blue rings. The flowers are made of tiny blue-ringed octopuses, attached with their heads to green flower calyxes. The arms of the octopuses hang down from their heads, and occasionally writhe in all directions to grab insects flying by. The bright yellow carnivorous flowers attract insects by flashing their bright, iridescent, shocking blue rings. The hybrid plant grows in front of a dull, wooden fence that can be made out behind the abundant leaves and flowers of the hybrid. The image is executed in an appealing jumble of very, very tiny, extremely intricate, elaborate, decorative patterns and scribbles, and it is rendered in rich, vibrant colors in intense pen-and-colored-ink technique. The fully melded biological oddity is a hoax illustrated with painstaking precision in a detailed biology illustration style. Astonishing, impossible hybrid, extremely detailed, intricate illustration.
Hybrid blue-ringed octopus (Hapalochlaena lunulata) x pink octopus bellflower (Campanula takesimana “Pink Octopus”), a very dangerous, poisonous fictional creature. Don't let the pretty flowers fool you!
