The Painted Chair, drawing vs Finished Product

Here is the frog design that I painted for the AIRdirondack Art Project. (I like to call it “The “Toadly Awesome Chair”).  The drawing of the chair was the proposal that I submitted to the contest jurors, and then after the design was given the green light I had four months to paint. The chair did not come with the bottom cross bar like it did last year so I adjusted the design of the frog’s mouth to rest in a nice closed smile instead of the open mouth. (But oh that crazy gaping mouth would’ve been fun to do!)
