This Perenty (Lizard or Iguana) has been hand-carved from the wood of the local native Bean Tree. Sandy works from a large section of the tree-trunk and uses various chisels to shape it. He then applies feathery strokes to its head and dotting to its torso in various shades of ochre-coloured acrylic paint.
