I have an upcoming deadline for a gallery piece I am making on the 31st, and I have been severely slacking on my piece bc of my mother being in the hospital and other prior responsibilities. So now I am working overtime trying to get my piece done, and I could really use your help.
I am crocheting over a canvas, and the finished piece is supposed to be an octopus that is reaching out towards the viewer. You can see here the background I am working on.
But I have yet to get started on my octopus. Since I am so pressed for time, I was hoping maybe a few people could find some references for me while I finish my background.
If anyone would be willing to help, I would like pictures (not patterns) of crochet semi-realistic octopi. It can even be pre-existing A.I., bc although I do not condone A.I., I would be willing to use it as a reference to help me figure out how to shape my octopus. I would rather use real images, but I will take what I can get.
I hope this makes sense and I don’t sound to greedy or needy. I just could really use some help here. Thank you all!

@Knittedsister @MiaowCrochet @aeryneso @CountryGirlForever @Stichstiching @Juniper2010 @CROCHETINGCHEESE Thank you all so much for being so kind and going out of your way to help me!!! Y’all are awesome!
And to answer the earlier questions, my mom is doing much better now! She got out of the hospital on Thursday of last week, after being there for seven days. She was there because of extreme hyponatremia, which can actually be deadly in cases as bad as hers was. However, she is doing much better now and is making a full recovery. So we are quite blessed!
