Frog Icon


I painted this frog for myself last week. I thought it could compliment my last post about illness and healing. Supposedly frog teaches us that tears cleanse the soul. I am just relearning watercolor after about a 15 year hiatus, and this is my first attempt outside of class. Could use some improvement for sure but I'm satisfied with the peaceful air about the frog. This is one of a series of animal icons that I've been painting every week or so. I'm noticing that they seem relevant to my life and mental state at the time so I think I'll start including them sometimes.
