Artica - Flat-Out Frog

.
Not all the art at Artica was standing up on the ground. This clever stencil was on a nearby sidewalk. I like it: moving, slithery, squashed and semi-abstract all at the same time. Really rather ingenious, IMHO.

    I'm almost speechless but I rather like it too. Reminds me a teensy bit of Joe Aerosol's stencils in Paris!

    Fluidic curves too. (By the way, I just made that word)

    You seem to be an inspiration even for making up new words!
    This is fun, I guess it's French. Are all frogs French?

    With a hearty three cheers from Kris, Jen, Henry and Ezra!

    Oui, Ciel, toutes les grenouilles sont françaises, mais non tous les Français sont des grenouilles...

    Looks like one of those crime scene chalk outlines
    : ) Have a very good holiday, Bob! Maybe you're eating frog's legs for Christmas?
