Lizard

For the longest time there have been three picture hooks above my bed with nothing on them because I couldn't think what to put there. Then I found three matching empty picture frames in my studio and though 'why don't I paint something to go in these for the bedroom'.

Unfortunately I didn't think it through very clearly because in my head the composition went something like this:

Whereas in reality the spacing of the picture hooks was more like this:



Still I'm quite happy with it.  Even if it loses some of it's continuity with the segments being so far apart.
It's not any particular sort of lizard, it's meant to convey a general sense of lizardyness.

Mixed media on card.  (Acrylic paint, graphite, coloured pencil, matt medium, gold paint)

  2. Looks great! And yeah, I too like the idea to draw on the wall in-between. Something I'd totally do! :)
