Purpose: Not only are octopodes one of the most intelligent invertebrates on earth, they have a very unique circulatory system. This poster was designed around the anatomy of the three hearts of the giant pacific octopus. This species was chosen due to its large size, as the hearts would be easily seen in relation to the head as well as the flow of blood. The goal of the poster is to provoke curiosity to a general public about the world around them and show how beautiful it can be. The overall feel of the poster is to be fun and playful while still being scientifically accurate to reach a broad audience. The octopus is positioned in a way that best displays the location of the hearts in the head and the tentacles are positioned as if the octopus is telling you the story of his circulatory system.
