Friday Face OFF -- Bearded Dragon Lizard

For this week's Friday Face OFF link party
of art featuring faces, hosted by Nicole of

 From the "Drawing Australia" course
which I'm currently taking, here's
a bearded dragon lizard. 

As usual, this was done freehand
using HB, 2B, 4B and 6B pencils.


According to Wikipedia --

Pogona is a genus of reptiles containing eight lizard species, which are often known by the common name bearded dragons or informally (especially in Australia) beardies. The name "bearded dragon" refers to the underside of the throat (or "beard") of the lizard, which can turn black and become inflated for a number of reasons, most often as a result of stress, if they feel threatened, or are trying to entice a mate. .  . . They are found throughout much of Australia and inhabit environments such as deserts and shrublands.

A real cutie-patootie, isn't he/she?
