charging bull elephant engraving

[glassartist]

This is a block of optical crystal I hand engraved with elephant bull charging and the rest of the herd in the background. The engraving is deep, freehand engraved with a dental drill, using diamond and stone burrs, most of the engraving is done on the back of the piece with some work on the front to give a 3D effect, the bull is very deep as it is the furthest thing forward. I intend to do some more pieces along a similar format -such as buffalo, lions etc,.
