Description Dive into the enchanting deep blue with this captivating artwork, a true treasure from the vast ocean of creativity. The bold, cobalt octopus stretches its tentacles across the canvas, encircled by whimsical, pearl-like textures that echo the mysteries of the sea. A subtle nod to the fluidity and grace of marine life, the phrase "Something in the waves she moves..." dances above, adding a lyrical touch to the piece. Highlighted against the backdrop of a serene, wave-kissed texture, the red-lettered and customizable "HAWAII" anchors the work, calling to mind the vibrant spirit of the islands.

About the Artist FishAye Trading uses Gyotaku, a "fish rubbing process," to create much of their artwork. Gyotaku began two thousand years ago in the Orient. It was originally done to document species and sizes of fish. It then transformed into an art form. The Gyotaku technique allows for a truly accurate image of all the details in each fish.
I use the following method to make the image look as natural as can be. First I mix up paint or ink and then apply it directly on the fish. Next, I simply cover the fish with fine paper or fabric and gently rub." John F. Doherty, Artist and Owner.
