Coyote Skull Tribalby ~NaturePunk

Traditional Art / Paintings / Macabre & Horror

Skull from naturally-deceased coyote, found on my uncle's farm in South Dakota. Teeth are testimony to the age of this poor guy; they're quite worn down from use, meaning that he was well past his prime when he laid down in the grass to die. Bone had a yellow-ish green tint to it, but I painted the whole thing black and then added the silver detail later on.

This piece is already sold, but I Lo0oVE painting skulls and am hoping to do more later on. I also hope to do some carving once I find a place outside the dorms which will tolerate me and my dead stuff. Bone dust smells funny, and can really do a number on your lungs.

you sound like my mate sarel. loves making art from found object (dead objects). he once made a skull by soldering old coins together over a kudu skull looks epic. but now he just casts "thing" in bronze

Awesome! Does he have a DA account to display his artwork? Sounds like the kind of thing I'd love.

~PeterPan2357 Jul 1, 2012 Professional General Artist

sorry but he dose not.

~Loempiabarbie Jun 23, 2012

this is amazing! what kind of paint (and lacquer?) did you use?

~NaturePunk Jun 24, 2012 Professional Artisan Crafter

Acrylic paint and a spray-on fixative.

Wonderful piece

i'm so tempted to paint one of my animal skulls now! what kind of paint did you use, certain paints can damage bone and i don't want to take any chances.
