12 Musketeers - October

This was a fun piece of a collaboration orchestrated by the lovely @paperreka last year. This year's calendar revolves around the concept of roots. How to interpret this and illustrate it was up to eleven other talented designers and myself.

I chose to illustrate the month of October by going back to its roots rather than portraying mine. I spelled out the remainder of the month's name with a word that shares its root. Plus... octopus tentacles are just pretty rad. Check this and the others out at www.12musketeers.com.
