Hi Steemers and Steemians,
this small painting I've done a while ago.
I've discovered this little frog in Australia and thought it would be definitely worth to paint this scene.
Unbelievable but true, this cute little fellow is already a fully grown tree frog.
It´s sitting on my hand :).
For the little picture I've used oil paint like usually.
"Big Fingers I"
oil on canvas
13 x 18 cm
This is the beginning of the painting:
First I started with the skin tone in the backround.
The smooth transitions in the backround are important to create more depth.
After the backround was done I've started on the main figure.
And finally working out the details in the painting.
I hope you've enjoyed the post.
Have a nice day!

Cute little frog! Admirable how you can paint such a realistic small painting. Maybe you should have held your finger next to it, but the one with the palette and brush also serves to illustrate the size.
I had a little frog like that living under the kitchen window of my house in Canada. It is a shaded corner, with evergreens covering most of the area and a large rock that got dripped on by a leaking water tap.

Oh cute! :D
As much as they love singing you can be happy if they find a new home under the kitchen window and not somewhere near the bedroom...
Did you keep it to forcast the weather for you? :)

no, never thought of that - and I didn't keep it, it kept me, lol.
But some time ago when the tap stopped leaking, he disappeared. There was a little depression in the rock that held water, and he would just sit there getting his feet wet.

Thank you sooo much @anouk.nox!! :)
Also for your big "whale for a day" upvote - interesting concept!
Yes, isn't it incredible that they are already fully grown while beeing still so tiny? :)
And they are really small. They are probably around 1 cm. The little dots on it's back are grains of sand sticking to it's skin.

Ist der Frosch nun eigentlich so klein oder die Hände einfach nur besonders groß? ^^

:D Gute Frage!
Aber der Baum auf dem auch dieser hier saß, war übervoll von Fröschen!
Wenn die sich alle verwandeln gibt es eine ganze Armee von Prinzen. :D
