Radiant Joy!

Well, here it is at last, my very first finished oil painting. I am rather besotted with it myself, LOL! I look forward to hearing what you all think of it. My lovely frog's name is Joy. I was so happy every time I worked on her mostly because she was just so happy looking, I pretty much figured the name was inevitable. There was one point during the coloring process that she was absolutely, astonishingly & even disturbingly green and yellow, she really looked radioactive. But now, in her finished state, she's simply radiant, hence the name 'Radiant Joy.'

Jess - these are fab! I still like "Larissa" the best, but your undeniable talent is expressed in every drawing/painting. Keep shining for the Lord, girl!
