Froggy Went A Courtin'
In the song Froggy Went A-Courtin', isn't it kind of weird that the frog marries Miss Mouse? And why does Kermit date a pig? What's with frogs dating outside of their species? Frogs aren't attractive... that may be part of it. Another reason may be that it's very difficult to tell what gender a frog is, which is why frogs gravitate toward a Miss Mouse or a Miss Piggy... no confusion there. And maybe since frogs look so similar, inter-species dating is the best way for them to ensure they're not dating their sisters.

I think you've misinterpreted your own picture here, Shane. What's actually happening is that Bowtie Frog is introduce his new fiance, Miss Daisy, to his mother.
Wonderful work, as always. I'm your biggest fan... Take that literally or figuratively, it works either way.
Fun colors! and the concept...
Have you ever heard/read the fable about the frog that tries to be as big as a bull to please his kids and sucks up so much air that he explodes? Well. That's what this reminds me of. Fun expression on the girl..boy..frog...thing... :)
Whoa! It's like Tom Thumb courting Big Bertha. Did you know frogs make a "popping" noise when they're run-over?
hahahaa
love the frog on the left

Your are so funny and a brilliant artist! And your commenters are really funny (and nutty) too.
Even as a child I wondered what Kermit and Miss Piggy's children would look like and how they would be raised (a pool full of pink tadpoles is my best guess). I love your two frogs they are very cute and full of character. Nicely done.
Love this - hilarious!
