The Blue Frog

The blue poison arrow frog or the poisonous blue dart frog

This frog was on my mind ever since I saw it in a zoo..though I don’t remember where I saw it. Indeed eye catching creature, the shine on its skin looked beautiful. Blues with a black pencil from classic set of Faber Castell were good enough. The paper of Yuva sketchbook wasn’t too thick still held 2-3 layers.
