Leopard Frogs
4' X4', Acrylic On Canvas
©1999
Fascinated by the leopard frog varieties in my backyard pond I decided to create a piece that reminded me of their beautiful textures and habits. The way they pop in and out of the rocks to reveal the sun glistening on their beautiful reticulated patterns is revealed through the faceted layering of different views of the frogs. The backgrounds were freehand airbrushed and the frogs were paintbrushed to create a more realistic effect.
