Beauty and the Octopus

a commission for
i drew her as a sleeping mermaid kidnapped by some giant white octopus, who's visibly hopelssly fell in love with the mermaid and hid with her somewhere amongst coral reef,so it turned out to be a preety scary underwater version of Beauty and The Beast story
but i bet the octopus doesn't really want to hurt the sleeping mermaid, just stroke her head and play with her hair
the original is generally bigger and look much better than the photo, and i hope shall like it
