Huichol artists in Mexico have created beaded skulls ,  designed by Catherine Martin of Exquisite Corpse. I came across these on LN-CC website and instantly wanted one until i saw the price !! Although an amazing skull will not be sitting in my bedroom anytime soon , I would like to use them as inspiration. The technique of the beading is so precise , and enhances every contour of the face and head. The colour palette used on every skull is unique and vibrant , almost bringing the skull back to life .
