"Ryan's Toad" by Carol Peterson
10" x 13" mixed media
$100
My grandson, Ryan, took the photo of this toad which I used for reference. He found the toad on a hike in Split Rock State Park in Minnesota. He lay on the muddy path having a marvelous time taking close-ups of this fella. The toad seemed totally unperturbed. This painting was done on an old painting which I collaged, stamped, painted, etc. I used gouache to put the image on and darken the background. I love experimenting with these mixed media papers.
