The Artist behind Southern Wolf

My name is Jessi, or some of you may know me as Almost Australian.

I have a strong background in both art and animals, and a passion for taxidermy - a trade which has managed to incorporate both of my loves.

I am a self-taught taxidermist located in the beautiful state of Tennessee, and I specialize in the art of soft-sculpture taxidermy.
