Dynamic creation in a dramatic, frozen stop motion.
Cute pair of eyes with a bonus third one!
Voluptuous body.
Shapely legs.
Fluid flowing strokes.

Thanks for sharing...

    Thank you very much for your encouraging comments. The "third eye" is the air-sack he uses to throw his loud call. :o)

No sixes left Cleo Girl but your painting and poetry deserve so much more!
I love the eyes on the frog and the highlights of light on his head.
AMAZING colors, details and nice sense of movement in the water.
Beauty in verse and art!!

Very , very nice...both the art and the poem. This would be a good first page to a children's illustrated poetry book. I love the frog colors and the lily pads. The movement and light in the water is so appealing to me. The water grasses in the foreground are nicely done.

A cute and well done drawing/painting that well illustrates the poem. Nice sense of flow and movement in the image. Pleasant to view and would do well in a children's book. Well done.

i absolutely love the detail in this painting. the striations along the sides of the legs are wonderfully rendered. the water looks realistic too, as do the lily pads in the background

Oh my goodness the poem and this frog in the pond are both just delightful! I love the angle of the frog in the blue water of the pond, excellentdetail in the frog and I like the colors and tones too, he is fully stretched out as he swims, I love his eyes ! This is very well created with awesome detail and color choices very well applied, I love the green plants and rocks in the pond . Very well presented and a pleasure to view!
