Ferdinand the Bullfrog Acrylic Painting

Ferdinand the Bullfrog Acrylic Painting


20 x 20
Acrylic on Canvas

One of my favorite stories as a child was about a bull named Ferdinand who just wanted to be left alone to smell the flowers under his tree in the pasture.... but wound up in a bullfight ring. Being the meek and mild (and perhaps slothful) bull he was he didn't fight, bored the crowd and was eventually sent back to his pasture. Moral of the story? well, I don't know if there was supposed to be one, but it looked to me like 'if you sit on your ass, you'll eventually get what you want'. Perhaps I can blame my lack of initiative and drive on that childhood story... I do, after all, love to just sit on my ass :)

So this is a homage to slothfulness lol
