Joel Nakamura's exploration of Octopuses? Octopi? Octopodes?

Octopuses? Octopi? Octopodes?  Which ever word you prefer, Joel Nakamura has been exploring them in his work for some time now.  In fact, he's been playing around with the octopus image so much lately that he has started creating them made out of some rather unexpected things...such as gummy bears and watermelon.  Here are 3 of his most recent octo-pieces:
