Painting of a chambered nautilus shell with white octopus tentacles curling around it

Creature by Chloe Yingst in San Marcos, Texas.

I saw this piece by Yingst over on Dribbble’s Popular page. A chambered nautilus with octopus tentacles? Yes please.

There is a lot of depth to this piece and the sense of scale seems, to my eye, to be perfect. I feel as though the tentacles are closer and farther away. This isn’t easy stuff but Yingst nails it.
