Description
Every year for Christmas my father wants me to paint a picture for him, preferably a landscape, preferably a seascape with sailing boats and a lonely fisherman. Truth to be told, I'm a terrible landscape-painter and I'm especially bad at drawing idylls. They all tend to end up looking like bad copies of Rembrandt's "Sixen's Bridge" which - truth to be told - might noch be far from what they actually are.

Fortunately, apart from seascapes, my father also likes frogs. So I thought about drawing him a frog-picture. Now, unfortunately, everyone and their dog tends to make my father frog-related presents. So I tried something new and drew him a nice, fat, content toad.

Toads are as cool as bowties.
