I found this real bone deer skull packed away in storage. Rather than
toss it, or give it away, I decided to clean it ,and ask my girlfriend
to paint it. She is a professional, award winning artist, whose
turquoise paintings have sold for hundreds of dollars. You can see more
of her art work at

This turquoise painted deer skull was so much fun, that we have started
another one. And maybe in the end, we are somehow honoring the animal by
recycling nature and giving it a second life.
This turquoise deer skull was a collaborative effort. I cleaned the deer skull and applied gesso to all the surfaces, even the back. Then Liana painted the front, top and sides with professional grade, artist acrylics. It was my job to take the pictures and create the listing. I think we make a great team.Well, I am off to hunt down more skulls. If you have any questions, just send me a convo.

Hi there! I found photos of these fabulous skulls on etsy and wondered if you sell them? I would love to have a turquoise skull, and I don't care who it used to belong to...cow would be perfect, but a deer would be okay. :D
