Frog Demo 1

Title: Frog Demo #1
Medium: Acrylic on illustration board
Size: 6x7 inches
Genre: Animals

The other day I did a demo for the Austin Palette Club on "limited palette." This frog painting is done using only 3 colors: thalo blue and burnt sienna, plus titanium white. Yes, it really does make a green when those two colors are mixed and white is added. You have to use the "green shade" of thalo blue to make this happen; the "red shade" of thalo won't work.  Model was a toy plastic frog, set up next to a little glass bottle.

Snack Time

After I painted the frog, it seemed as though he was looking intently at something. The painting didn't seem completed.  What better to capture a frog's attention than a big, fat, juicy fly.

Last year for Christmas my husband gave me a charming little owl figurine, and I've been wanting to paint it ever since. I've also had this teensy silver key for a long time, so many years I've forgotten what it goes to. So I put the two of them together. The orbs in the background just appeared while I was painting, well you know how that goes, right?

The uprooted flower means that it can be replanted, as opposed to a cut flower which doesn't have a chance to re-establish itself. The wing has been anthropomorphized into a sort of hand, complete with opposable thumb.

Re. the color, I'm working on mid tones, to get more variation in them.
