Title: Octo Scorpio
Series: Starry Nights

Original acrylic painting by Sarah Soward.
Acrylic on canvas
12x16x1.5 inches

This painting features an octopus being a little bit extra. 

Octo Scorpio is inspired by the Scorpio constellation. It's in the upper left of the canvas, crossing the Milky Way. Given the power and prowess associated with Scorpio, this painting needed to be epic. 

If you're wondering why I didn't paint a scorpion, there are a couple reasons. The most important is that I like doing things a little bit strangely, sideways, or not quite as expected. I have to be true to myself. So, in lieu of a scorpion, what made sense to me? The octopus has enough curves, bazaar aspects, and a pokey beak. I decided that would definitely work for me for this one. I hope it works for you too!

The photo reference for this piece is from an excellent photographer, scuba diver, and good friend, Jan Lindner.

LUNAR CODEX

My Artwork on the Moon

Luna, my triple-rhino painting honoring Earth's moon, is going to reside in the Southern Polar Region of that very same moon. My art is not only international, but extra-terrestrial.

Luna is part of The Polaris Collection, payload GM1, going to the moon with the Astrobotic Griffin Mission 1. Enormous thanks to Samuel Peralta and NASA for making this possible.

Inspiration

I love the natural world! Through my artwork, I seek to honor it and encourage others to love, protect, and conserve it too.

A percentage of the proceeds from the sale of my artwork is donated to the International Rhino Foundation.

Image Reference

I work primarily from my own photographs of animals, wildlife, and nature. While I paint and create artowrk in my indoor art studio, I gather most of my inspiration outside. I combine any number of photographs along with and my (over-active?) imagination to create my artwork.

"Absolutely Beautiful! I never really looked at rhinos as a beautiful animal...But when you paint them, you make them look so majestic and beautiful but still big and muscular. And let me say maybe peaceful. No one is there to bother them. It's like I see them truly free and happy!!"

Hey Sarah, we hung the painting in our dining room. We had other plans for it, but decided we wanted to be able to look at it often. So, here I sit, having a cup of coffee while enjoying it. Cheers!
