New England Pond with Bullfrog - acrylic on canvas 48”x60”
A frog is the visual centerpiece, but the real drama takes place in just a few square feet of pond.
Tiny hungry insects swarm fresh green leaves. In a life and death struggle, the plant races to produce enough energy to survive. The leaves are quickly reduced to skeletons, and then mush.
As all seems lost, pods emerge to release their precious seeds into the water.
