Georgia Aquarium (by Kien Tran)
Lines for my octopus tattoo, done by the amazing Genny at the Wizard’s Den in Petawawa, Ont. This is my second tattoo, I loved and hated the experience so much. The hurt was worth it.
Octopus are so beautiful and strange and I’ve loved creatures of the sea so much.
I cannot wait to get the colour done and to see it finished. :)
Reasons why octopuses in general are really weird:
- some have three hearts
- and venomous saliva
- and a hidden parrot-like beak
- they can change the color and texture of their skin with incredible ease and speed (they are much better at it than chameleons)
- they have “intelligent arms” that don’t seem to need instructions from the brain to perform certain actions
(this is a giant pacific octopus.)

weirdawesome. FTFY.I love that aquarium maintainers have to wrap up the locks in octopus tanks with turf, because they can and will figure out how to unlock their tank <3
I love octopuses and their tentacles.
