This dragon hedge sculpture is what happens when you have an unrelenting passion for fine sculptures, a hedge and an extra ten years to spare. This dragon sculpture was made by John Brooker out of a 100-foot long hedge he had on his property.
For some, ten years can seem like an eternity, but for John Brooker it seems to have been the work term for his latest project. This hedge didn't only take ten years to complete, but is extremely detailed and well-crafted. The hedge looks beautiful, with rounded edges and a detailed head, making it one of the more meticulous creations one has made out of a hedge they found on their property.
Brooker worked for a few hours every single day for the ten year period to get the dragon to where it is.
