Jeweled Dragon

This breathtaking jeweled dragon is the perfect adaptation of a unique subject matter in Amber's style. The contrast is immaculate, giving the diamonds the illusion of a luminous glow. The swooping filigree in the corners of the composition adds a beautiful flow to the flower leg, and the contrasting values in the red gems give them a sparkly effect. Giving the piece an even more realistic look, Amber added drop shadows underneath some of the diamonds to make the piece look 3 dimensional. This special piece was done as a memorial for the client's late husband, who wanted a dragon tattoo but never had the chance to get one. By Amber Strange.
