Add a touch of sparkle and nature to your home with this delightful original mixed-media painting by Betsey Fowler. Titled "Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend," this piece features a charming frog adorned with glitter, sketched on location in the Galapagos. The handwritten "filming diary" note at the bottom adds a personal, storybook touch. Framed in gold (19"x15"), this piece is perfect for a nursery, eclectic living room, or nature lover's office. Signed by the artist and her husband, Jim Fowler.
Artist: Betsey Fowler (American). A renowned wildlife artist and wife of Jim Fowler.
Provenance: This is a unique original work (mixed media), not a standard lithograph. It is hand-signed and inscribed by Betsey Fowler (front and back) and Jim Fowler (back).
Context: Jim Fowler was the legendary host of Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom and a correspondent for Animal Planet. The inscription references "Animal Planet," dating this piece to the early 2000s (post-Wild Kingdom era).
Origin: The inscription notes the location as Galapagos Islands, Ecuador, South America, created during a "Fowler Expedition."

The artwork is clean, bright, and well-preserved. The hand-applied glitter embellishments on the frog's body and "necklace" are intact and retain their sparkle. The paper shows no visible foxing, tears, or water damage. The simple gold-tone frame (19" x 15") complements the piece well, showing only minor shelf wear consistent with age. The glass is clear. less
