Weekend Art Challenge – Frogs!

What a wonderful collection of frog artwork we have received this week! Fantastic challenge idea! We set our students the task of drawing or painting a frog, any kind of frog, for this weeks challenge. We love all of the artwork we received in our inbox. So much so, we found it an extremely difficult task to choose a single feature image as they are all so brilliant.

So we have opted for two this week! Pricilla Hocking’s very graceful frog is on the right and Julie Smalley’s flying frog is on the left! Scroll down to see them in full at the bottom of the page and read about them too. We also have to give a mention to Pauline’s ‘Frog Prince’ below wearing a crown. If you happened upon a frog with a crown like this chap… surely you would kiss him just in case he turned into your prince charming??!

We hope that everyone enjoyed this challenge. Stay tuned for a new Weekend Art Challenge posted here tomorrow.

I copied a frog from one of the photos on the blog and when finished I then decided to add a crown, a frog prince!

I’ve called this ‘Somewhere out the Back’ It’s watercolour on paper with some added texture along the bottom of the picture.

My drawing of a frog that lives in my garden. I thought I’d challenge myself and use charcoal for a change.

I had great fun with this, enjoying using gouache paints and just letting my imagination go!

Hi-ho, Kermit the Frog here! I present a very talented and beloved TV-show host, and probably the most famous frog in movie history. Amelie
