Robber Frog (complete)

See how this "Robber Frog" becomes a people mover. Whose are those children it is stealing? It is not really a robber, it is taking large numbers of the family on a trip to a better pool. How fantastic is that?

"Robber Frog" - stage 2, cured engraving.

"Robber Frog" - stage 3 partly "DNA stained".

This piece is part of my endangered creation series. There are something like 40% of amphibians on the critical list. Strangely a lot of these creatures are suffering death by fungus. They kind of go mouldy. How grim. How did this come about?

I think that this engraving has really worked out to give a terrific, interesting and lovely piece of art work (with much better colours than shown here via my mobile camera). You can see it completed (and framed) HERE (in better colour representation via my new photography set up).
