The fact that three-fifths of an octopus’ neurons are not in their brain, but in their arms, suggests that each arm has a mind of its own.

This was a gift, commissioned for a Los Angeles film director, from one of her childhood friends. Her favorite song growing up was Small Blue Thing, by Suzanne Vega, and her favorite animal was the Octopus.

Created on mouth-blown glass, painted with lead oxide, windex, this window was leaded in the traditional stained glass fashion and framed in cherry.
