This is a quick little tree frog using watercolor pencils. The intent for me was to do a quick loose sketch and a quick coloring. Not looking for fine detail. At some point I will graduate into using ink for the sketch and then the color. Using pencil for now as I try to gain some confidence in what I am doing.

Welcome to EDM, Alan.
I think your little tree frog turned out great!
I'm still struggling with the watercolour pencils, but they are a nice medium to take on travels. So easy to transport and you can always add water later at home.
This is the coolest!!
Thank you Bonny and Shelly for your kind comments. Shelly, I can see why red and green tree frogs might interest you.
I really like your tree frog - great job.
That does look like you had fun!
i found you today through another blog and like what you do, i like the fact that you are still learning (like me) i like the honest and fun and simple approach to your blog, so i'll be back soon to visit again.

Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog. Tell me about that pesky old job. (Idea?) Where I work they have LWOP-Leave without Pay. You can come to work and sign up and walk out the door. I cannot do the LWOPPY thing. I have to have my money.
Thank-You to your Father too! My cousin was there and did two tours, He carried a gun. So, double thanks for the air support.
Love the lighthouse. You have Daniel Smith near you. I also have Dick Blick right here in town and online.
I love my artwork. I am just taking the Tiger by the tail.

I really like your frog. I just returned from Costa Rica and the little frog are so colorful and cute and even a little toxic. Hope you try the pen soon it is great fun. If you make a wrong line just make a new one or leave the wrong one. Nice blog.
