Paint Party Friday Sneak Preview #23


Wow it seems I'm not the only one fascinated by these blue tailed little beauties!!! Thanks for all the great comments last Friday!!! I got a little more done this week on the body. I'm not sure if its going to turn out realistic or more abstract in design. Just waiting to see which way the little guy zips back and forth! I'll include another pic from the photo shoot too on the wood plate. You can see the droplets of water that spilled out of the bottle after him! Cool! Be sure to check out all the other PPFers, super duper fun stuff!!!! Thanks Kristen and Eva for hosting our Partaay!!!!!

  9. He looks like he lost his footing in your art studio and started falling in a paint pot before scrabbling to safety! Great interpretation of the cheeky little fellow.

  17. Very nice design. What a great inspiration. I've seen those lizards in our yard, but they are so fast all I can catch a glimpse of is the vibrant blue tail. I never knew what they were called. Great artwork.

  19. Love his blue tail. I actually like it more abstract on the body. Looks like some native design. :)

  20. Skinks creep me out because of the snaky way they run, but they do have beautiful colors. I see more red tailed ones than blue on my porch. Your painting is looking great so far!

  22. I have the feeling that this little guy turns into something very special. He looks cute so far.
    My neighbor's cat who lives in my backyard (and I truly love her)unfortunately loves to chase lizards. Over the past few days I had to rescue two of them. She's such a stinker!
