Mystery Frog Painting in Pastel update

Progress is rather slow on this painting due to the detail of the fern leaves. Impatience and boredom made me start working on the frog...it is proving rather difficult due to the small scale of the piece (5"x7"). This means lots of sharpening going on to keep those pastel pencils very sharp and to a fine point.

I am certain many of you will be able to identify this common native frog in the next update.
