Bones

I saw these two pieces in a jewelry gallery in Hudson, NY. They are made from bones. I think they are exquisite, although I did not write down who the artist is.

I don't know why, but I really love bones. So white, smooth, skeletal... I'm not really sure why. I know it's kind of a cliche, but I just can't help myself. My favorite Christmas present was a steer skull. I have a deer skull hanging in my family room. I have a whole box of skulls and bones in my studio, including a fox skull which is very fragile.

I also have this cow head made out of pewter, it is not bones, but it balances out the deer skull nicely.

These are plaster feet, not bones at all, they do not belong to me. But everyone should have a tray of white feet.
