Art and Max are lizards, living in the desert. They need to grab all the beauty and fun they can. Arthur, as he prefers to be called, is a talented artist. Max would like to paint, too, but he doesn't know what to paint. Art gets more than he bargained for when he suggests that Max should paint him and gets spattered with multiple colors. When Max tries to remove the paint, he ends up removing Art. Can Max bring Art back? Will life on the desert ever be the same? We all get into the amusement as Caldecott-winning artist Wiesner has fun with art.
