Vintage Large Folk Art Wooden Frog w/ Teeth by Sculptor Artist David Max Alvarez For Sale

I was able to acquire an estate with signed pieces from various artists in the Santa Fe, New Mexico area. One of these pieces is a very large and hard to find wooden frog by sculptor David Alvarez. This whimsical frog measures 13-1/2 inches long, 9 inches wide, and 4-1/4 inches tall. There are cracks at the joints, but no major structural damage. It is signed by the artist on the bottom, and most likely carved from cottonwood. Below is the bio for David Alvarez:
