Blue Chameleon

(2) PS A lonely chameleon adapts color, stance, and action to mimic hoped-for friends (e.g., grasshopper, snail, striped sock). Finally he meets a member of his own species, to joy on both sides. This simple scenario garners deeper meaning from its minimal dialogue and spare, expressive illustrations, rendered in colored pencil modulated by rough textured paper on a flat ground of paler blue.
