Description

It is a space-traveling frog astronaut, flying through the space-time continuum. For this piece of artwork, I used paint, paper, and a magazine. I used a balloon, my fingers, paintbrushes, and Q-tips to make the different textures that you see on this board. For the sun, I mixed orange and yellow paints, then poured them onto the board, let the excess paint drip off, and let it dry. I made this piece because we had an art project where we were using different color palettes to make art, and I enjoyed it, so I thought that I would make a similar piece for the contest.
