Octopus Mosaic Wall Art, Large 4 ft Stained Glass Mosaic Octopus

Update June 2017

I'm no longer making this exact style of octopus but visit

my new shop featuring my coastal art mosaics to see the latest version.

My latest mosaic piece... a big, giant octopus.

He's actually a little over 4 feet wide but very lightweight.

He got in my head and I just had to make him.

I got on a octopus kick after I added this octopus Christmas stocking

to my other sea life stockings.

I've painted octopuses before

like this octopus painting on canvas...

I paired him with a coordinating sea coral painting.

And here was a cute octopus I painted on a glass bottle,

I drew my design and cut out of plywood.

I worked on him off and on over a few weeks while working

on other orders.

 When I spotted these mother of pearl round beads

at the craft store, I knew they would be perfect for the "suckers".

I love how they look.

Here's how they look after they were grouted.

I bought two different sizes of them and cut some of them in half 

I used a beautiful blue/green stained glass with a darker

blue for accent on the arms and dark gray grout.

All those arms and edges were definitely a challenge to mosaic and grout!

Sold

I do love how he turned out.

Thanks for checking out all my octopus pics.

Be sure and stop by my new shop featuring my mosaics.
