This is a layered paper shadow box artwork featuring a frog resting on lily pads beneath a blooming water lily.
The frog sits prominently in the foreground, crafted from multiple layers of green, cream, and brown paper that give it a rounded, lifelike form. Dark spots and cut details add texture and personality, while its glossy eye draws attention and adds a sense of alertness.
Behind the frog, a large purple and pink water lily blooms, its layered petals radiating outward and creating depth. The yellow center adds a bright focal point that contrasts beautifully with the cooler greens and blues of the pond setting. Lily pads and water layers beneath the frog suggest calm, still water.
Framed with a white outer frame and teal-and-purple matting, the piece feels peaceful, vibrant, and nature-inspired. The balanced composition and rich colors make it a charming decorative artwork that celebrates pond life and the quiet beauty of the natural world.
