Artist's Comments

Ok, so this guy was in my house about a half hour ago. In the process of trying to shoo him outside, I managed to take a couple of pictures. At first I thought he was a gecko (not to be confused with Geico ;-) ) he moved like a gecko but his hands look more like a lizard.

I have never seen anything like him (thats the actual colors,, The only thing I added was the border). After all these years living in Florida,, I still see some crazy critters.

He's a five lined skink, if I'm not mistaken. Really lovely picture!

I don't know,, the comment before was right,, it is a skink. I saw some pictures of somebody holding one so I guess they are ok to touch. They are fast like a lizard. I took another shot and the colors are even brighter on that one. I'll send it to u in an email. Thanks for the fave!!

Sorry about the late reply,, I live in Palm Coast which is about 20 miles north of the Daytona Beach area. I'm about 5 miles from the beach. I found him in my house, took a couple shots and then helped him get back outside. I had never seen one prior to that day and have not seen one since.
