Garden Iguana - Ken Matsuda Art

 This is a really cool Iguana by phenomenal Japanese artist, Ken Matsuda.

I love his artistic imagination!

I chose to color him in a Celadon Green with shadings of Jade.

The background is Light Cobalt Turquoise,

a mini pastel, rubbed on with a make up wedge & a Q-Tip.

The flowers are Carmine Red with accents of Crimson Red.

The stamen centers are Jasmine & Golden Rod colors.

The leaves are Olive Green with Prussian Green accents.

Thanks for stopping by!

Have a blessed weekend and SPRING FORWARD!

Koi - Love & Friendship

 Love & Friendship.

That's what the koi fish symbolizes in the Japanese culture.

Ken Matsuda has captured intricate, stunning details

of both the koi fish and the leaves, vines & flowers.

I had to sharpen my colored pencils to have extra fine points in some areas!

Challenging, but oh so wonderfully relaxing!

I "created" the spots on the fish.

Check out the impeccable details drawn by this artist!

Thanks for coming by!

Have a great day,
