Artwork location: Netherlands

Angela Gomes' "Cleopatra buffalo" is a remarkable demonstration of artistic skill and creativity. The sculpture is a one-of-a-kind piece, handcrafted from a real buffalo skull that has been meticulously adorned with crystals to create the iconic figure of Cleopatra.

The process of creating the artwork begins with the careful selection of the buffalo skull, which must be cleaned and prepared for the application of crystals. From there, the artist painstakingly applies each crystal by hand, creating a complex and vibrant image that portrays the legendary Egyptian queen.

The technique used by the artist is extremely laborious and detailed, requiring great patience and skill. The careful selection of the crystals, as well as the use of precise tools to apply them perfectly, are crucial to the success of the artwork. Additionally, the choice of the right crystals is important to create the desired effect in the piece, such as brightness and reflection of light.

The value of the artwork is determined both by the creation process and the quality of the final work. The skill and precision required to create such a complex and detailed piece using natural materials make the artwork highly valued by art collectors. Additionally, the combination of natural and luxury elements, such as the buffalo skull and crystals, adds a unique and exclusive element to the artwork.

In summary, Angela Gomes' "Cleopatra buffalo" is an impressive example of artistic skill and creativity. The manual work involved in applying crystals to a real buffalo skull is a demonstration of precision and dedication, which gives the artwork high aesthetic and commercial value.
