Another busy week with little time to create. I'm still thinking of my Word of the Year - "CONNECT" and started to doodle...
This silly little Octopus is VERY eager to CONNECT with you all this year!
Have a great Paint Party Friday! I will visit you when I can (it may take a few days though....), I'm very excited to see what you've painted so far in 2012!
She's wonderful. Happy and brave.
ReplyDeleteMy word is Happenstance for 2012, God's way of telling me this is meant to be. . . I have to pay attention. Blessings, Janet
Happy New Year Eva! What a cute Octopus! I have missed you guys!!
ReplyDeleteI love that you thought of octopus when thinking on the word connect- she's a very friendly looking octopus so I think it works.
ReplyDeleteI constantly feel as though I need both a tardis to find the time to fit in everything at this time of the year, and a few extra arms wouldn't go astray either... hope you get more creative time this week...xx
ReplyDeleteI like your new blog header (I missed last week's paint party friday so maybe you mentioned it then?) Connect is a great word especially given how well the internet enables us to connect with other like minded creatives out in cyberspace! Cute octopus too!
ReplyDeleteAhhhh isn't she gorgeous!!! Love her little face!! Happy New Year Eva I wish you lots of creative adventures in 2012!
ReplyDeleteAhahah!! It's so cool!!
ReplyDeleteLoving your happy Octopus. Happy PPF and have a great weekend, Annette x
ReplyDeleteIt has lots of hand to connect with. :) Fabulous!

Hee hee! So cute... I love those green eyes! (I knew you would paint!)

Super cute octopus and I love your word! I am STILL thinking about mine. :) Happy New Year.
ReplyDeletelol...great painting for your word connect...so apt....take care...xxx
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for your "party" site. Your little pink octi knows how to do the splits! How clever!
ReplyDeleteI know this is an older post but I missed the week that everyone posted their words for the year and I wanted to come see yours. This little octopus is perfect for the word connect. He can connect with lots of people at one time! I think it's a great word. Artistic lives can be a little solitary if you don't make an effort for them not to be. I know I'd miss connecting through the internet if I didn't have it because my local friends aren't interested in artsy stuff.
