Artist commentary:
Land of _____ and Frogs (the _____ is 'Space', a double entendre) was meant to be a happy go lucky piece contrasting the true danger that was to come. Also, it's hard to imagine a little child running around and not being overzealous at the thought of catching Frogs to use in experiments. There's also a reference in there I was asked to put in - it might be obvious. I personally haven't played the game referenced but it's a funny little one nonetheless that I was happy to put in. It's very Irish sounding, too, which could have come from playing a lot of marches in an orchestra while I was writing this piece.
My first attempt at this art ended up being a little too dark and dreary for the music, so I whipped up this one instead. Veritas and Traikan (out Space player in the background) catching frogs. I kind of suck at backgrounds and foreshortening, but hopefully I added enough shinies to cover that up.
