Here's is a little frog aceo for PPF. I cheated and looked at a picture from a mini stain glass craft book. I have to do that to draw anything halfway realistic looking, other wise everything looks like cartoons or petroglyghs, lol. Tomorrow we are going to a gem and mineral show, yipeeeeeeee! Happy PPF everyone!
I love your little Friday Froggy!! I love frogs. Of course they mean renewal and that goes perfectly with Spring!! Great job Deb!!

Nothing wrong with consulting a reference for your drawings...ahem...I seem to remember someone (cough..you..cough) catching a gecko and photographing it for a rather marvelous painting.
ReplyDeleteGreat frog, not at all petroglyphy (not that there is anything wrong with that). Have a great time at the gem show.
cute frog, I hear they are doing mating calls this time of year!
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting my blog and leaving a comment. I love your frog, I actually keep reptiles and frogs, used to have loads but have cut back, but this frog looks just like one I used to have. Great job!
ReplyDeleteI love that he looks like he's about to leap into an adventure!! He's so handsome! :) A gem and mineral show!! How fun!! Are you taking a big bucket with you? :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet frog! Frogs are my favorite ornament to make.

ReplyDeleteWonderful frog, Deb! I'm with the others, it's not cheating to look to pictures for help. It's how you fill it in with your own style that counts! Happy PPF
ReplyDeleteThis looks like such an inquisitive frog- ready for summer! Fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThe frog is a wonderful painting. While I loved watching the skink painting evolve, I also enjoy seeing things you've done more quickly. I can't draw anything except mountains, flowers and faces without looking at a picture.
ReplyDeletelove him!!!!!!!!!!!! gem shows - super fun, my mom used to own a bead shop and everything we did was with semi-precious stone beads............ beautiful and so soul-filling!
ReplyDeletecheers, dana
