Frog Wrangling

A while back, I too had some business to conduct with Jim Burke who is the creative director behind Dellas Graphics Frogfolio calendar for 2013. He is also the chair behind the new lively illustration program at the New Hampshire Institute of Art. Thank you very much Jim!
It was daunting to be included with many famous and noteworthy frog wranglers such as Bill Mayer, Tim O'Brien and Marcos Chin. I suspect it was my frog-wrangling skills rather than my illustration abilities that appealed to Jim. Nevertheless, I created this painting/collage what-have-you. Since this diversion was all just for fun and no money changed hands, I worried and perseverated and overworked it as much as possible.
You can see one of my sketches to the left here. I think it all worked out for the best. Inter-species love affairs have their logistical problems (at the very least).
