Strawberry Poison Dart Frog, Oophaga pumilio
This painting was inspired by looking back over my childhood sketchbooks and rekindling my sense of awe and wonder at the natural world, using vibrant colors. I also used to see these guys on a regular basis when I worked in Tortuguero, Costa Rica doing research on sea turtles. They're tiny! The colors of this frog are not dramatized, they really are this electric in real life! The brilliant red & blue signals to predators that the frog is deadly poisonous. Native to Central & South America, native hunters use the poison from the frog's back to poison their blowgun dart heads. Hand-signed giclee print on archival watercolor paper.

Hand-signed prints are printed, inspected and signed by Nick himself. He then ships your print to our expert framer who mats and/ or frames your prints and ships them to you. All of this is done by hand with great care to ensure a quality crafted product. These are hand-made custom frames, hand-cut mats, and hand-signed prints, so they are not an off the shelf item. So that is why they take longer: 7-10 days turnaround time on the hand-signed matted & framed pieces only. These all ship via UPS Ground. If you have a rush order, a specific date you'd like your piece delivered on, or anything unique you feel you need to tell us, please note this in the Notes section on the checkout page and/ or Contact Us. Thank you for your patience with these hand-made, unique works of art.
My mission as an artist is to inspire an appreciation for and curiosity about nature and its creatures by communicating the aesthetic beauty of this planet’s amazing creatures as they really are.
It is my hope that this appreciation will result in acts of empathy & stewardship towards these incredible creatures portrayed in my paintings.
Happy customers
