    oh-oh…... what has little Taddy been up to? Mumma frog looks really cranky….. lovely work!!

  • penspapers replied

    Yes, poor Taddy is growing fast and has asked for seconds… or maybe thirds. Old Mrs Frog is cranky because she just cleaned up the kitchen!
    Thanks, Barb. Glad you like it!

    Splendid, a little Arthur Rackham and a little Beatrix Potter.It’s remarkable to see this kind of work in the 21st century.

  • penspapers replied

    Wow! You just made my day, Susan. Those are two of my heroes, so I am immensely flattered!
    Thanks so very much!
