Impressions
This silly little frog might remind you of Barney Gumble from the Simpsons. Looks like he’s had just a little too much fun. Or… he could be the life of your next New Year’s Eve party!
Artist’s Thoughts
This was another very early print produced during the time I was teaching high school art. I was inspired by the beautiful aegean blue of the paper. A water creature just seemed like the right thing to use it for.
