I painted this bust for an online competition and drew inspiration from nature—specifically this reptile, the Green Iguana. I tried to capture the striking contrast between light and shadow. I focused particularly on the texture of the skin, the feathery crest, and the small decorative details. It was an enjoyable project and a great opportunity to experiment with colors and atmosphere.
I hope you like it.

Realism feels great. Feels like an evolved kind of thing we could find.
love how the feathers turned out! The highlights at the base are a neat detail I never noticed about feathers.
