This is colored pencil, with a little touch of acrylic for the spots.

I like it. Very good use of colour.

Extraordinary color, so smooth, like paint. Beautiful rendering. So well done!

Love it. Your shadows give it a 3-d quality.

Very good handling of the medium. Such a cute and beautiful creature!

Aww, thank you! My "secret" is blending with gamsol so you can get so many more layers than you can otherwise.

Thank you! I struggled a long time with my subjects looking flat, so that's wonderful to hear.

Smooth looking beautiful colors,and yes, a good 3D aspect.

Size ? not that it matters

Jessie, I just got done celebrating your Space Whale - and now I see this one!

Your octopus is beautiful - again, fun and full of whimsy. Your palette is so appealing!

I'm hoping you have an ocean full of these.

Thank you so much! You're too kind Marine life -jellyfish and octopuses in particular- are some of my favorite subjects, so you can expect plenty of these
