and then looked at and read some more about gigantic squid and colossal squid and revamped her pattern. Lula is Portugese for squid.

Of course there needs to be a fish. I considered a dolphin, but in whatever level of fantasy/reality I was going to assume, a dolphin would be the same size as her, unless I was saying the goddess is a giant.... so Eja also had two design iterations.

The Starfish and o how they come in so many flower-like configurations remained more or less the same.

Early results from pattern testing seems that what I wrote is what they got and are, so I am pleased.

Love the squid! Have you seen the movie, Ponyo? It's a kids movie but it's a wonderfully uplifting story and it's got lots of imaginative sea creatures.
i LOVED PONYO!!! it gave me lovely dreams, it was strangely grown up for kids... i found it very evocative and romantic but somehow it also reminded me of father's children books like Kasperle and Wind in the Clouds-- gorgeous illustration and stories with an edge. Thanks for sharing!
