“Hill Country Guardian” — 5"x 7" Greeting Card

Prismacolor Pencil Illustration

This richly detailed Prismacolor pencil drawing features the iconic horned lizard—or as many Texans affectionately call it, the horny toad—nestled in a vibrant display of native Texas flora.

With its rough, textured skin and fine, scale-like detail, the horned lizard is brought to life with care and precision. Surrounding it are classic symbols of the Texas landscape: blooming bluebonnets and prickly pear cacti, arranged in a natural composition that evokes the wild charm of the Hill Country.

A soft, earthy color palette keeps the focus on the harmony between the creature and its environment, while a subtle geometric backdrop adds a modern balance to the piece. Every layer and blend of color reflects the artist’s thoughtful craftsmanship and deep appreciation for Texas wildlife.

Blank inside — perfect for nature enthusiasts, Texas natives, or anyone who loves desert beauty and a touch of the unexpected.
