# About me
Hello everyone! First, thank you so much for visiting my page and leaving such wonderful comments. <3I am in Colorado but grew up in woodsy Wisconsin. I am always picking up little treasures: rocks, bones, bugs, feathers. As a young adult I took taxidermy classes, biology courses (anything involving dead things, dissection, etc.). I had wanted to become a taxidermist but found I lacked space, tools, and mostly money. One thing, however, that I am super interested in and that does not require a taxidermist license is skulls! So, I jumped on that, searched around for information about carving, painting, etc. and what you see in my gallery is what I've created.
Many inspirational artists can be found on the web nowadays, thankfully, and several of them I found myself right here. I encourage everyone who is visiting to take a peek at all the wonderful groups that have been created here. The list is quite exhausting!
Thanks again for visiting! <3

Man, I always loved carved skulls, but your work is fantastic! So detailed and just simply gorgeous. I was wondering how much one of your lovely puppets would be, if I were to possibly supply my own pelt, if you were open to that? :0 I have a few wallhangers that I would love turned into one!
If not I've got my eye on that lovely cross you have. >v>

Thank you for the lovely comment! You can definitely supply your own pelt. That makes it more special, right? I would definitely charge less...maybe half? So, $213 to start?
Let me know what you think

Oh awesome! <: Yeah I think it would make it a little more special haha, it'd be nice to give a little life and usefulness to one of my wallhangers!
Oh that's expensive :0 But it makes sense! The detail and love you put into your work would make it totally worth it :> I'm absolutely interested but I'd need a little time to come up with a bit more funds! I'll make sure to send you a note or the like when I can do it ;3

do you plan on making and selling Ghouligans at all or are they an exclusive thing?

They all come from trappers who make a little extra profit from them.

Absolutely LOVE your gallery! That was one inspiring tour.
I feel touched inside by anything shamanistic and tribal, animal skulls, and- pretty much everything you have there. 
Sorry I didn't comment, I couldn't think of something constructive. But some of your works really made me gasp in delight.

Hi Cathy! Yep, back in Wisconsin, as of...oh, a week ago or so. So you are back in Colorado, it would seem! Excellent! What are you up to?
You know, if I weren't such an idiot I'd actually email you...heck, I'll probably do that...
