Frog


Found: My house

This frog is representative of the multitude of stuffed animals I have. I decided that they are not art because they are made in a factory with machines and assembly lines. They aren't a labor of love. They aren't handmade. They aren't unique. They probably made over 1000 of these little frog key chains.

Also, I have not seen any stuffed animals as part of art exhibits. Of course, that doesn't mean there aren't any, just that it's not art in the mainstream sense. To me, stuffed animals are toys and decoration. They are cuddly and make cute gifts. But, they are not works of art.
