Beaded Skulls

Embellishing skulls with seed beads was inspired by the Mexican Huichol art. All of the natural skulls I use are supplied  by legitimate* retailers. Human skulls are 3D prints. The first step is to make any necessary repairs or alterations depending on desired themes. To fill large cavities I use a spray foam. Next, the beads are applied. The Huichol method applies the beads individually on end, whereas I string the seed beads on a clear monofilament line using a motorized bead threader. The beads are then glued to the skull using a professional clear super glue (cyanoacrylate). Finally, upon completion, the skull is applied to the base which has been designed and made in advance. Please contact me if you would like more info or photos of your fav.
