I saw a beaded skull art piece at a Safari Club International (SCI) art gallery booth with my husband and son, Brian. I was entranced! Considering that I love being creative, Brian gave me the skulls of a whitetail deer and a bear he'd taken in order for me to "practice" beading them. I learned an incredible amount from working with those two skulls. I have been completely impassioned with this form of art ever since.
