This character I have drawn since the 6th grade (1989).
He is a peaceful creature, closely related to the common frog.
He believes himself to be the last of his species. He lives
near a pond, but does not really like to swim. Jumping into
the water is what he really loves to do. Perhaps he just loves
the jumping part, and the water is the option that reduces
his risk of injury.

I drew this in Photoshop CS3.
