Artist's notes:

california red-legged frog thumb The California Red-Legged Frog was completed on 3/22/2009. This was a re-do from a drawing from about three years ago. I am much happier with this as it's more accurate and three-dimensional than previous version. The drawing is based on a photo by Jack Lin.
