Peridot Dragon Christmas Ornament

One of my most popular colored pencil drawings is my Peridot dragon, admiring the August birthstone he clutches in his talons. You'd think all the attention would inflate his ego, but all he cares about is the gem.

The ornament has been created by attaching a decorative yarn hanger to a tabletop picture frame, so it can be displayed all year long, even after the tree has been tucked away. The size of the print is approximately 2.75"x3.75." The frame has been brushed with silver acrylic paint, embellished with silver glitter, and then distressed to show glimpses of the original frame beneath.

Price is $7.50 and available in my Artfire shop with the rest of my fantasy art ornaments.

    I hope your experiment with selling via your blog goes well! I'm also a fan of the peridot dragon. You need to finish out the series with all the other birth stones, especially emerald :D
