thistle lizard

Painting inspired by a photograph from Lon (location, Illinois), the lizard loosely based on photo I took while hiking with Lacey, Reiji & Maria in the Picchetti Ranch Open Space Preserve.

If you go, visit the vineyard. Further info on hike.

Might be a California Alligator Lizard?
