Artist Statement: Many frogs are excellent at camouflaging, but the Malaysian Horned frog has colors and markings that has given it a reputation of being one of the masters of camouflage. The tiger in the background shows the dangers that the Malaysian Horned frog faces in the wild. I wanted to capture this frog’s ability and the reason the art of concealment is so imperative in the amphibian world.<
