“Fiona” (2022) 8” x 10” • Acrylic by Devon Bourget • From the artist: “Inspired by the playful essence of frogcore and garden characters, I put brush to canvas and brought to life the Fancy Froglings. Named with affection by my grandmother Judy, Fiona and her fanciful companions are a result of my deep-seated love for the farmers market, where I find endless inspiration amidst the bustling stalls and vibrant atmosphere. During the cold winter months of 2023, as darkness slowly yielded to spring and I eagerly awaited the Saturday morning market, my farmers market-themed collection of frogs was brought to life. Through Fiona and her friends, I seek to evoke a sense of joy and wonder, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in a whimsical world where imagination knows no bounds.”
