Suit - Illustration Friday

Chameleon chooses his suit.
I really can't take credit for this idea, my best friend suggested it and I did my best to make it happen. We'll see what she thinks of it. I got some new gouache paints so I was fooling around with those on watercolor paper with color pencil. As usual I was rushing to finish, so I'm not completely happy with the background and some other stuff.

Excellent painting! The suits are great and I love how you make mister lizard blend in with the branches. Gouache is a tough medium, great job!

Ahhh I love your chameleon! His posture is funny. The way his arms are crossed and he's sitting on the bench. I had to think about a picture I made a while ago that was also not my idea but my friends' ;) for the entry Match

It's awesome, Kelly! Tell your friend it was a great idea - but you pulled it off magnificently! :) I love the thinking-stance of the chameleon.
