A little more messing around...I've realized...I'm going to have to redo all the lines for precision reasons...wasn't intending to make anything complete really...but it's turning into something.

How it starts.
RGB circles/bubbles, with an added layer style gradient in rainbow, in radial, rotated to suit the horizontals and verticals.
Grid for just basic guides till I do them with more precision.
Blurred the three small white circles separately using radial blur for movement...(Suggested wormholes 🤷)

Then fine tuned the overlays to a mathematically more pleasing configuration.
No complete end vision entirely apparent quite yet.

The octopus lesson to date, then what happens when I throw it in ps to play with various colour treatments.
They all bring a different vibe.
It's nice seeing the tones work in black n white.

New piece started, derived from two unfinished digital composites.... Yes...we are going with multiple limbs

Update....
Still two more octopi to plot out properly

Its a slow slog....but I'm starting to see how it's coming together.
Octopus are from my imagination...I place them how I visually see them being whilst in terms of maintaining some balance.
Their coloring has a relation to them interacting with objects...yet to be properly outlined..but will remain geometrical.

Running out of space for my work in progress,..but I don't want to take van Gogh down

What I love most about acrylic is the ability to layer easily.
Going for semi irridessant octopi..one te****le at a time

Started on the te****les, they are so satisfying to paint!
Havnt painted properly in years quite refreshing.
Even if imaginary composition.
