So… having a little break from landscapes! I love, love LOVE toads! This illustration was painted from a photo of my pet toad Gimli, who I had for two years. Best pet, he loved crickets! More to come… I photographed a gorgeous, spotty enormous toad this past weekend I’m eager to paint, too!

This is the second painting of a toad I’ve done, the first was a quirky-upcycled piece of art titled Ode to a Toad.
