Happy world frog day!! I love all batrachians and it always makes me happy to draw them.
Lurline was affected, and owned, with a tear
That a story so mournful had ne'er met her ear…

Hi, you lovelies! I just sent off my folio for the Bologna Book Fair after finishing this last drawing. I'm sooo tired now, and today I feel really drained.
Nonetheless, these little guys, who live in thistles, having an early morning coffee and a chat, cheered me up, so I wanted to share them with you. Maybe they will make you smile too. Wishing you a lovely almost-weekend!
