Iguana color


Iguana Color Iguanas in Ecuador can be found in the Iguana Park in Guyaquil, but I found these fellows in the Banos Zoo, in Ecuador. I am sure that there are many places that you can find them. For some reason they can come in many colors sizes and shapes. They can be an experiment in color that will delight your eyes. It can help you imagine all the colors that the dinosaurs could be. This was a huge experiment in painting with sculptural acrylic paste. If you were to pass you hand over the iguana you will feel the lumps and bumps that create its skin. These creatures come in rainbows of color. They are quick, colorful and can be quite territorial. They are great fun to paint, but require a lot of patience. Normally, I can paint very quickly, but this painting taught me and reminded me that each piece of the painting should be honored and appreciated. Have fun with this painting and maybe you will also have the opportunity to pass you hand over its skin. Robin
