Smooth Color:
Foresters and woodsmen know many trees by their bark, which may be distinctive as to color, surface, pattern, and thickness. For example, the bark may be smooth color, papery, rough, finely fissured, deeply furrowed into ridges, separated into plates, scaly, or shaggy. However, the bark may change from smooth color and thin in the sapling stage to rough, thick, and differently colored at maturity.It as the predominance of a single color can be overwhelming or dull, so too can the use of a single texture or pattern. However, it is best to limit the variety of textures and patterns if you have a complicated color scheme. Otherwise, the effect can be cluttered and confusing. For example, if you have a range of textured surfaces in tones of, say, brown and beige, it is a good idea to limit the patterns and stick to smooth color surfaces for the other colors in the room.

Because of ability to change color, anoles are popularly but inaccurately called "chameleons."
