Get up close with this dramatic octopus portrait that fills the whole frame. One enormous, expressive eye stares out, with the rounded mantle above and the tops of several thick tentacles curling in, each detailed with rows of round suckers. The giant eye and big tentacle shapes give plenty of open space, while the many suckers offer satisfying detail, so the page works for a wide range of ages. Octopuses have remarkable eyes that can sense light and shape extremely well, and their tentacles are covered in suckers that can both grip and taste. Make that one big eye the star with a bold ring of color, then explore reddish, purple, or softly mottled skin tones across the mantle and curling arms. Print it on US Letter or A4 and create a striking, almost lifelike close-up that seems to look right back at you.

Coloring Tips

  • Eye is the star — color the big eye boldly and leave a small white spot for a lifelike shine.
  • Dot the suckers — give the round suckers a lighter shade so each row reads clearly.
  • Mottle the skin — blend a couple of close colors on the mantle for a real octopus texture.
