Bethany Kivisalu Hickey, the Taxidermy Chick, is a second generation licensed Maine Taxidermist.
Daughter of the acclaimed late taxidermist, Eino Kivisalu, "The Chicken Man," Bethany spent her childhood and young adult years assisting her father in the unique and unusual business of domestic bird reconstruction. As a result she gained much experience and exposure to the skills and methods required for this artistic work.
"It is the memories of those happy childhood years spent in the shop with my dad,
the smell of the birds, hay and fresh cut wood bases,
that causes this work to be such a delight to me."
-Bethany Kivisalu Hickey
