Golden Toad — Description

Golden Toad, Alcohol Marker on Paper
It's almost surreal to bring a creature like the Golden Toad to life on Paper. It’s extinct now, which makes drawing it feel a little heavier, like you're not just recreating an image, but reviving a ghost. The golden-orange colors demand attention, but they also carry a quiet sadness. The yellows, oranges, and deep shadows layer into something vibrant and alive, yet you know it’s not. The toad won’t hop off the page. But, for a moment, it lives again under your hand. And that’s something.
