'Lizards of the Caribbean by Su_G' (https://www.spoonflower.com/fabric/4560876). © Su Schaefer 2015 My entry in Spoonflower's 'Ditsy Lizards' Contest: I was so pleased that it placed 61st out of 240 total entries with 162 validated (unsolicited) votes. THANK you to all who voted, faved and commented! Printed beautifully on basic cotton, with all the tiny elements and small color differences clear and distinct - as shown in the thumbnails (double click for a clearer view). My inspiration was the recent reporting of a community of lizards in the Caribbean, preserved for 20 million years in amber, and identical to their modern cousins [‘Ancient lizards in amber amaze scientists’ by Stuart Gary, ABC Science]. (https://www.abc.net.au/science/articles/2015/07/28/4279562.htm) Along the way I learned that lizards - which include geckos - have five fingers or toes, while newts have four. I think we can call this lizard science. See other designs by Su_G. (https://www.spoonflower.com/profiles/su_g?sort=classic) Original: Self-cut stencils, felt pens, line art textures, basic repeat.
