James Doran-Webb, the incredibly talented driftwood sculptor whom we wrote about previously, has expanded his work from majestic horses to terrifying driftwood dragons that seem prepared to terrorize the village folk in the surrounding countryside.
Doran-Webb has created two epic dragon sculpture. The first, perched on a dead tree, is called ‘The Wyvern in the Baobabs’ (a wyvern is a type of dragon with two legs and two wings). The other, ‘Wyvern’s Folly,’ is perched on a gazebo made from reclaimed steel and recycled water bottles.
Doran-Webb works in the Philippines, creating amazing, powerful sculptures of creatures like these dragons using found driftwood and steel frames to make sure that they can support their own weight. Read his interview with Bored Panda and check out his website!

Share on FacebookI love the way the sculptor gives an 'after life' to material that is essentially dead. Amazing.
The armature is high grade stainless steel and the wood is generations dead and very oily. I bolt the large pieces onto the armature and weld the bolt heads so the pieces of wood are indelibly attached. These pieces will last for generations!

Load More Replies...Magnificent! All of these sculptures look like brought to life from a book.
I like the rabbits the most, and the reindeer, but all his Creations are impressive!
amazing. just amazing. i love how the drift wood really adds to the ominous feel of the dragon. wow just freaking beautiful
All of these creatures look really beautiful made from random pieces of wood! I especially love the dragons though, they were done just so nicely! It would be quite something to see these in person, hopefully I get to one day. http://www.jeansuniquegifts.com/dept-45180
