Description
I wasn't that happy with this one by time I finished it. Maybe I was fed up, because I think it's kind of ok now when it's been a while. Always a few things that Iwould like to change, but I think thats something every artist does although everyone else thinks it fineAcrylics on paper 22x31 cm

youre right, it looks real and not too real, i dont know, i like the fuzz in the back and the detail on the frog, extremely photograph-like.

Saw your "Leopard2" while browsing and decided to check out your other work.
This is good. I'm no tree frog expert but I think you've captured the little fellow very well. Endangered no doubt.

Yep is it is honestly just you who thinks it's not good - the contrast in tone, the translucency of the acrylics (Man is that tough to do, I hate acrylics myself) And the purity of the color is striking. Your technique is painstaking, beautiful. I think I'll devwatch my fellow painter!
Smoochi!

Acrylics is the only thing that works for me. I bought an oil painting kit, and tried it out. But it's soooo messy. My whole aparment is full of oil colors now ....maybe because I'm a bit clumsy, but still.
And watercolors are too unpredictable for me, I don't trust them
...thanks for your kind words.

Lol hehe I get oil paint on everything too, don't worry.... I try sometimes to be clean but I end up smudging the canvas with my (latex gloved) fingers.. then I accidentally touch my shirt, or my pants.. or anything else... and well, you know how that is.
Trick is to get a studio!!
Hehe smooch,

I'd love to have a studio. I used a studio at the university when I was a student, but I'm not studying anymore so no studio

This species of frog must hold the record for most times featured in paintings! Well done though. It's an excellent rendering.

I know what you mean I've seen a lot of them here as well.
I thought it was colorful, that's why I painted it. Maybe that's the reason for everyone else too.
Thank you.
