doodlewear 'The Social Octopus' (2021) art print octopus long sleeve t shirt by New Zealand Artist Matt Coates. This high quality long sleeve tee features a playful art print of a vintage male deep-sea diver with a moustache, and an octopus on his shoulder is holding out a camera for a selfie. The humorous artwork was painted in watercolour, and the artist has digitally signed it.

"It's not certain whether this octopus is poisonous; its bright exterior might suggest so, but it's evident that it's friendly. The date of when this unique selfie was taken is unknown, and the camera and film were unfortunately lost at sea. This artwork was inspired by the intelligence of octopuses. Although they typically live alone, could they actually be very social creatures?"
