This painting of a poison dart frog was inspired by a friend who keeps several of these vibrant amphibians. Myers was fascinated by their unique traits—their toxic skin, derived from their diet of insects, acts as a powerful defense against predators, while their cleft, sticky tongue aids in catching prey. She created this piece for her son, honoring his determination and dedication to his career as a computer systems administrator. This painting is now part of a collection of her paintings in her son’s home
