Drawing explanation of Chameleon
According to the community's requirements, today I am going to share my chameleon drawing with you all. I will now share with you step by step how I completed my drawing.
 | necessary things |
|---|
🔹To create the chameleon drawing, I first took a blank sheet of paper, a pencil, a gel pen, an eraser, and a sharpener.
| lightly sketch by using pencil |  |
|---|
🔹Using the pencil, I lightly sketched the outline of the chameleon. As you can see from the picture, the chameleon is perched on a branch.

🔹Once the light sketch was complete, I used the gel pen to clearly define the drawing.
 |  |
|---|
🔹Next, using the gel pen, I created many small circular shapes on the top of the chameleon's head. Then I added grid-like shapes all over the chameleon's body.
| added many small dots |  |
|---|
🔹In the middle of the body, I added many small dots using the pencil.
🔹I then created a shape right above the eye and filled it with many small circular patterns.
🔹At this stage, on the back part near the eye, I drew many tiny oval-shaped patterns.
 | spiral shapes |

🔹After that, I added spiral shapes all over its body and drew thin snake-like shapes on the upper part of its body.
| Drawing complete |  |

🔹Looking at the picture, you can tell that my drawing phase is complete. Now I will move on to the next step, which is coloring.
 |  |
|---|
🔹For coloring, I first chose the eye. I used two colors for the eye: red and blue.
 |  |
|---|
🔹Next, I colored around the eye with red. I also used blue on a triangular portion behind the mouth.

🔹For the small oval parts behind the eye, I used a combination of yellow,blue and green.
 | Lower part of mouth color |
|---|
🔹Next, I will color the lower part of the mouth, for which I used red and green.
| Blue color in crescent shape |  |
|---|
 |
|---|
🔹In the middle of the body, I created a crescent shape and colored it blue. Then I moved on to the next step. I outlined the serpentine shapes on the chameleon's body and used red for those. From the picture, you can tell that the red coloring is now complete.
 |  |
|---|---|
🔹Once the red part of the body was colored, I added bent shapes for the front legs and used red for them as well. After coloring the front legs, I added striped patterns to the back legs and used red there too.
 |  |
|---|
🔹Now I will color the upper part of the chameleon's body. Before coloring, I lightly sketched a shape, and for this part, I used green. I started the coloring from the back of the head and went all the way to the tail.
| Using Yellow color |  |
|---|
🔹Once the green coloring was done, I moved on to the white section beneath the blue, which I colored yellow.
 |  |
|---|
🔹Next, I used orange for the section beneath the blue and extended it down to the tail.
 | using green color in the lower side of i'ts body |
|---|
🔹Looking at the picture, you can tell there are still some parts left to color. I used green for those remaining parts of the body, and with that, most of the body coloring was done.
 |  |
|---|---|
🔹Now I will color the legs. I started with the front legs and used green. Once the front legs were done, I colored the back legs with the same green. I have now finished coloring the entire chameleon's body.
 |  |
|---|---|
🔹Next, I will color the branch the chameleon is perched on. For this, I used a combination of orange and brown. I applied the colors in combination to the branch.
|
|---|
🔹From the picture, you can tell that my coloring is now fully complete.
| Selfie with my drawing |  |

🔹Finally, I captured a selfie with my chameleon drawing.

I have tried to answer all the questions mentioned in the post below |
|---|
Have you ever seen one?
Yes, I once saw a chameleon at my sister's house. These species are small to medium sized reptiles mostly in shades of green, brown and grey. They are capable of color changing with flexible bodies. Its long, thin tail helps it grip branches too. They creep through the trees slowly to avoid being preyed upon. One is that their eyes can rotate in different directions which enables them to watch for potential food and threats simultaneously.
What is it like and what does it do to save itself from danger?
Chameleons are able to change colors as a way of camouflaging themselves with their surroundings so that they cannot be noticed down by predators. They have special cells in their skin called "Chromatophores" that enable them to change colours based on the colour of what surrounds or even her mood. They are also slow moving so they can easily become invisible, however when needs they run fast or catch prey using his long tongue. They have developed eyes that enable them to spot enemies immediately at a distance.
Doe it in any way benefit humans?
Chameleons do not really affect humans directly , but they support the ecosystem. They consume pests which are destructive for plants, save crops by keeping away harmful bugs and reduce using of chemical pesticides. Farmers benefit from this natural pest control method. Moreover, chameleons play a role in the ecosystem by regulating insect infestations.
