Badass Bones Taxidermy and Painted Skulls - (541) 745-8363

Badass Bones brings you genuine, hand-crafted, unique works of art. Painted skulls, hanging mobiles, bone-engraving, bone-burning, taxidermy, custom pieces

Welcome to Badass Bones Taxidermy and Painted Skulls! My name is Erica Heath and I’m from the small town of Philomath, Oregon. Since I was a child, I’ve had a fascination with skulls and other bones when my father would bring home deer, raccoon, and coyote skulls he found here and there. Only recently have I started using my small collection to make elaborate pieces of artwork.

Badass Bones brings you many, unique works of art from painted, engraved, or wood-burned skulls, to hanging mobiles and decorated horse shoes. If you prefer old, cowboy-western art, I’ve got something for you. If you like traditional or tribal décor, I’ve also got something for you. If you enjoy the presence of the spooky or macabre in your home, I specialize in that sort of work!

My philosophy is to preserve and utilize every possible piece of an animal that Mother Nature leaves behind, and bring them to you! Often times I will incorporate feathers, fur, teeth, claws, antler, leather, glass beads, driftwood, and other beautiful nature-made or hand-made bits and pieces into my finished product.

Many of my materials come from right here in Oregon, be it death by hunters, nature, or cars! Most of my elk materials came from our coast range. Many of my raccoon, coyote, and rabbit furs and skulls come from the Willamette Valley. Also, due to the lovely donations of local hunters, farmers, and taxidermists I’m able to stay pretty local with all of my deer materials. I purchase many of my larger skulls through taxidermists and collectors both in the United States and Internationally! I’m able to bring you many rare pieces including kangaroo fur, lion skulls, reindeer antlers, and crocodile teeth (just to name a few) by collaborating with the taxidermy artists and collectors of Deviant Art! Basically, if you want it, I’ve got it or I can get it!

Not only will I bring you pieces from my own collections and imagination, but I am AVAILABLE FOR COMMISIONS! If you want something specific, contact me right away and we can begin to build a unique and specific piece for you! Maybe you want a specific skull? Do you want a unique painting of your choice? Maybe you want me to work on one of your personal skulls or hunting trophies? Maybe you want specific feathers, teeth, or fur? We can do that!

Keep in mind that what I currently bring you is only the beginning of what Badass Bones plans to be! With your help, we can get the ball rolling and I can purchase skulls/furs/other materials that may be tougher to find, harder to get, or require more cash! With more time and practice, I hope to produce pieces with elaborate wood-burning, engraving, and stone/jewel setting. With more schooling and help from you, I hope to get more serious with my love of traditional taxidermy and bring you the finest mounts and rugs!
