Tree Frog Contest #2

Here are my answers:

1: The Red-eyed Tree Frog is Agalychnis Callidryas, which is loosely translated from the Greek as "beautiful tree nymph" (at least Callidryas is translated as such).

2: Red-eyed Tree Frogs lay eggs on the underside of leaves (that are near water), so that once the eggs hatch, the tadpoles fall into the water below.

3: Red-eyed Tree Frogs are usually 2-3 inches in length.

This was a lot harder than I thought it would be! Since I found so many different varieties of tree frog, not all the answers coincided, so I chose answers based only on the Red-eyed Tree Frog, since that was the one our colorway and images on the contest/shipment showed.

Thanks, Jen, for another great club shipment and fun contest questions!

Contest #1 - Georgia O'Keefe

This was difficult to choose! I really like Red Canna (1923). It reminds me of a sunrise, and the yellow looks like it's exploding out of the red, ready to begin a new day or adventure. It may also be that it reminds me of spring and all the sun we're gaining now. Also, how nice summer will be, if it ever gets here!

I also like Lake George, Early Morning Spring (1925). It reminds me of the country up here, and the summer camps I used to attend when I was younger. You can find many peaceful places like this here in Alaska; the summers especially are gorgeous.


I also like a lot of the ones others have posted! I'd see them and think: Oh, I didn't see that! So I had to go back and look at them all again, and find more I like. Her paintings just flow so well, and most are so peaceful and relaxing. I need some of them around my house. =)
