I love frogs!

I painted this frog before I'd ever traveled to places like Costa Rica where I could actually see them in the jungle. And to be honest I still haven't seen this particularly beautiful little guy. I saw many of the green and brown variety. And of course the Blue Jeans frog. Last year on a night hike I saw a white frog that was almost see through. Usually when I paint something I feel that I haven't captured it's true beauty like a photo can. But I'm very proud of this frog. He's actually part of a bigger painting. But he's definately the best part.

Fantastic! I am also a huge frog fan- they are so darn cute! Can we see the rest of the painting?
