Description

Cindy Duff Mosaic Bull Skull – Tile, Glass & Iron Star Wall Sculpture

Vibrant wall-mountable bull skull sculpture by New Mexico folk artist Cindy Duff, recognized for her hand-painted furniture and decorative Southwestern works created alongside her husband, Greg Duff. This piece features an intricate mosaic of colorful glass and ceramic tile with an inset iron star, arranged in a symmetrical pattern of floral and geometric motifs rendered in vivid reds, oranges, greens, and yellows.

The natural bone surface and gracefully curved horns provide striking contrast to the artist’s meticulous craftsmanship. Signed “Cindy Duff” on the underside, this substantial mixed-media work reflects Duff’s signature fusion of regional color, folk symbolism, and textural design—continuing the artistic tradition seen in her painted furniture and murals.


Condition:

In very good condition overall, with no remarkable damage. The mosaic remains securely affixed and brightly colored; bone and horn surfaces show only minimal natural wear consistent with age and material.


Dimensions:

Overall: 21" H × 31" W × 10" D
Weight: 23 lbs
Wall-mountable.


Notes:

Cindy Duff is a New Mexico artist known for her folk-inspired painted furniture and hand-decorated art objects, active since the early 1980s.
