The Rastapus is here!

My "Rastapus" (octopus/Rastafarian) original watercolor painting is done! And I have worked on two awesome digital art photos that I love, selling 8" x 10" photos of those and prints of the Rastapus on Fine Art America as well as the original. Email me here for details: swartzkopf@yahoo.com
