It has been waiting for a 26th reviewer. There you go! I will do it with the gold medal, Cleo! I see a six star digital painting (I don't have any sixes left this week ). It is my pleasure to review your art as always! At this time you included a beautiful poem! It's simple, but deep! All the colors were carefully chosen and blended to match water or underwater world atmosphere. Nicely done!

This is great a very good artwork with a delightful poem a 2 in 1. Well done. I like this idea ... are you part of the fanstory side of this site. I often wonder how that works as I see from time to time prose with artwork.

And you would see me with my flashlight and gig hollering "we gonna have some legs tonight!" Been a Coons age since did that. Good memories..wink. the details is great. The body form and language is great. The depth is great. The shading is great. The blend of the colors is great. The creation is balance and eye appealing to the viewer. Creative and great job overall

    When I was a teenager there was this small stream that cam from the bayou that had big bullfrogs..I swear it was only 5 or 6 ft wide. Those legs were big..i go into these Chinese buffets and they would have these lil frog legs on the buffet..I didn't want to touch em thinking they must be cooking toads instead of bullfrogs..lol

Cool,Cleo!
I'm not a big fan of poems but I LOVE Amphibians and Reptiles and I'm digging your digital portrayal of this big Batrachian creature a lot!
There's a slightly Surreal sort of a look to the image that I'm enjoying a whole lot!
'Good Show',my friend!

Nicely created artwork with the frog leaping through the water - good color and detail on the frog. The poem is lovely. Cheers Mary

This picture is just so fluid and smooth. Perfectly depicts the frog casually swimming in the water. Great job with the eyes!! Nice color choices as well!

Comment from CammyCards


It is indeed a cool and refreshing picture which accompanies your nice poetic description. But what is the third eye next to the frog's left eye? I find it very distracting.

    Thank you very much for your kind review and your input. The "third eye" is the air-sack he blows out to make his voice louder. The frogs anatomy would be incomplete without it. :o)

Comment from Trajan


Nice job on this froggy. It does have the feel of a Japanese wood cut print. Solid play of color and texture. Good movement as the frog is in mid swim/jump.
Very well done.

I love the nice colors and shading you did in this art. I also liked how you included a little poem in the description too. You should really do more of this kind of thing. I love to see the creativity in artist and what they do with their art in different ways. Keep doing what you're doing bud.
