A Froggy Day !!!

As you can see...frogs have always been big in Squiggeeland....At the top of the page is the little Prince frog called A Total Prince and opposite him is Princess Le Lani...he is worked up on 18st and she is on 24st.....sometimes i like to change the size of a design and work it up on another size canvas...same design just a different look..she is small but determined...lol....The prince frog was my first attempt at doing a model for Squiggeeland... he has become sort of a mascot....I knew I was onto something when he came out of the box from the finishers and shot me his famous look...who could resist his charms.....over the years i have done many frogs in all sorts for shapes and sizes...the latest being this custom angel frog tree topper for a frog tree....I am not sure what people do with all these froggies...I always hear of someone presenting them as a gift...I suppose you can use the larger ones for frame weights...I heard from a customer that she was using the Total Prince as a ring bearer pillow...now that is cleaver of her...the largest shaped frog I have been asked to design measured 24" across....now that was a big one...it was formal with flowers and I took it that she was going to have it on her couch since the flowers were to match her draps....now I myself would have one of the witch frogs that size , just to give your guest sitting next to it something to wonder about...lol...
I am getting ready to paint a frog sailor stocking...you know for a Frenchman...what else !!! see Mr. Squiggee blog for another frog design....and remember...frogs don't think they taste like chicken at all.....so have a hot dog instead !
