Lizards are fascinating creatures that can be found all around the world. They are small, scaly reptiles that you might see in your backyard, at the park, or even in some parts of the world like deserts and forests.

Lizards have skin that is covered in tiny, hard scales. These scales help protect them from getting hurt and also help them blend in with their surroundings.

Many lizards have long tails. Some lizards can even lose their tail if a predator grabs it. This is called 'tail autotomy' and it helps them escape. Don't worry, they can grow a new one!

Lizards have eyes that can see really well, especially in bright light. Some lizards have a special third eyelid called a 'pecten' that helps keep their eyes clean and protected.

Lizards eat all sorts of things, like bugs, plants, and sometimes even other lizards. They have sharp teeth to help them catch and eat their food. They are masters of blending in with their environment. Their colors and patterns help them hide from predators and sneak up on their prey.

Lizards are important friends in nature, and they help control the population of insects and other animals. In today's drawing tutorial, let's learn how to draw a lizard in a tree, so let's give it a try!
