A Second Tree Frog

Before moving away from Fredericksburg, by best friend Mary and I decided that we would exchange hand-made gifts instead of buying things for one another. She browsed through my artwork to pick out one she liked, but the frog both she and her boyfriend both fell in love with was already sold. I ended up giving her the Sloth Bear, and resolved to do another Prisma Color frog. It was small enough to do in one sitting, and I think it turned out rather nice. I am still reading the absolutely breath-taking book of her poetry that she gave to me in return.


The new Red-Eyed Tree Frog for my amazing friend Mary.


The original Frog that Mary had requested.



Peacock Collaboration

Here is the peacock photo as promised, though not as good of quality as I would have liked. The actual bird itself is painted in oil over a gold acrylic background, which was done by myself. The tail feathers are melted crayon, done by another artist. It was a favor for my lovely friend Melissa. Enjoy!
