Tough Guy- Iguana

Close ups

Oil on 5x7 hardboard.

This is my contribution to this week's WDE at Wet Canvas. The hostess, Astrid, provided the photos.

The iguana (spiny iguana, I believe) looks like a tough customer from it's facial expression. I just invented the background to sorta reflect his personality.
He's not really sitting on a BBQ grill...Lol!

Philippians 4:⁶ Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.⁷And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

The Survivor

Oil on 5x7 gessoed hardwood.
This is a San Salvador rock iguana. I see something strangely noble in their appearance...similar to an eagle. They have survived so many countless years only to have their existence threatened...by you know who.
The image for this painting was graciously supplied by Lisilk for the WDE at Wet Canvas...Thank you, Li!

Iguana In Acrylic

Now, time for something different! This is acrylic on a 5x7 archival canvas panel.

Over the last few oil paintings, I have felt that something was lacking...unsatisfied with the result...missing the "old days" when there was an excitement looking at a freshly completed piece of art and making great discoveries in this or that area.

Time to break the boredom. I used to paint exclusively in acrylics before starting in oils about 6 years ago. Today I had a crack at acrylics once again and it was a blast. This isn't exactly the image I had in mind, but I let the painting lead me...I let the color fly. Tho not perfection, I can feel the thrill with this one. This is not about reality, but expression and creating! I hope you like it...let me know.
