The sound of one bullfrog is just as funny as the sound of many. But a cane toad is noxious and invasive.

THE TOAD BALLOON, 2022
Fatima Lasay
9 W x 12 H inches, acrylic on watercolor paper 200gsm
The woman is holding onto the string of a balloon. She is trying not to laugh. The balloon is a big toad. A duck wants to pop the balloon. An oriole wants to attack it. In the background are the Chocolate Hills of Bohol. There are dark clouds. It looks like rain but the sky is blue.
Animals are an important element in my art. After all, I am a livestock farmer.
