Besides living in a frog pond, the next best place for a frog is in your garden. What a lovely site to see a frog amongst your flowers. This frog has followed the flowers into the house to observe the arrangement in the floral bouquet. Visit my website to purchase this painting. SpohnStudio.com

I have finished this large diptych of a wonderful flower garden. I painted this piece using mainly pallet knives and then finishing up with some brushes. This was a whimsical, fun adventure starting with just a few photos of some flowers I wanted to use in this garden. Then as I started, I imagined I could see a cat sitting in the garden, watching a spider...... well, the storyline grew from there, until not only was there a resplendent floral garden with a cat and a spider.... but also; a caterpillar, a salamander, 2 frogs, a baby bunny, 3 bees and 4 butterflies! Can you find them all?
