Drawing, pencil on paper, 8 1/2 x 11 inches, 2007
This drawing captures the lead guitarist for the Frog Band tearing it up on a guitar solo. He's in the pocket. The crowd is going nuts.
This was my final project for a drawing class at San Francisco City College in 2007. Just like my Hand Turkey was the greatest of all time, this has to be the best drawing of a taxidermied frog playing a guitar that the world has ever seen.
UPDATE: There is a squirrel band at the Country Music Hall of Fame that might give my frogs a run for their money. According to legend, Hank Williams Sr. shot these little guys on his land and hand them stuffed. Whatever, my frogs can take on some country squirrels. I'm not worried.
UPDATE 2: Angela B just pointed me in the direction of this Prairie Dog a capella group at a bar in Hayward, Wisconsin. They actually look pretty tough. Who knew there were this many taxidermied animal bands in the world?
UPDATE 3: I compiled images from 15 taxidermied animal bands on the internet.
Absolutely #1 with a bullet. Cool guitar, too! It's like an acoustic three-string Danelectro baritone.
