Depicting the bittersweet experience of love & loss as well as suggesting that love is what you make of it. The anchor & chain are intended to symbolize the security of steadfast loyalty in stormy seas and that which keeps you from becoming aimlessly adrift. The arrow is love's tool of capture and the weeping tear symbolizes the pain of loss. The suspended ring demonstrates the promise of commitment. The skull is the symbol of the end of us all and the reminder of living in the present. Dimensions: 4.5" x 2.0" x 7.2" (11.5 x 5.1 x 18.3 cm) Material: 3D printed polyamide (essentially a nylon/glass powder fused together with a laser)
IF YOU DON'T WIN: This piece is available in alternative colors as well as other work created by Joshua in his store HERE.

I'd take it on my next big adventure. The last one was to Machu Picchu via the Inca Trail, but the next one won't be quite so far away for me. We'd go camping in the world's largest freshwater archipelago. We'd kayak amongst the Georgian Bay Islands and take in the glorious sunset before basking in front of a campfire and toasting some marshmallows.
That scarlet skull would be worn at pelvis level and join me, and my full sugar skull make up, out to scare small children and receive disapproving looks from the elderly. Eventually we'd end up at an Art centre where we'd stand, defying anyone to try and move us and say we aren't meant to be part of the exhibition. Bored of the normal people, we'd head home, trash the bedroom and then I'd lovingly hang it from Satan's horns on my wall.
I would take this skull to my daughter in the hospital, where we could laugh at its arrogant threat of endings.
Great sculpture

We would enjoy a few beers at Upright Brewery, located in the basement of an office building. They usually have some classic punk rock records playing and decks of trivial pursuit to pass the time.

My skull and I will spend Valentines day in Canberra a city which is said to have no heart and no soul. My skull will be right at home in a city which lacks warmth and romance. No mawkishness here.
Since I live near Philly, I'd take it to the Mutter Museum to see all its friends.
tatertot61@hotmail.com
I would take us to a hockey game. I moved to Ft. Worth, TX like a month ago and we would both be astounded going to a hockey game. We'd be cheering our asses off & enjoying the fights. After that, go somewhere for a few beers to have a recap of the game and then grab a bite to eat.

Pere LaChaise Cemetery Paris. A baguette, some cheese, a bottle of wine, and thou.
This pretty skull & I would celebrate Valentines Day by enjoying first going to Yakitori Toto in Manhattan & then retiring to my house for wine & Vincent Price movies. Nothing says Valentines Day like The Abominable Dr. Phibes.
I would take the skully out to see a show, of course! Maybe an eastern european punk band, or a thrasher jazz show...in any case we'd share some memorable moments over a few pints of porter!
This skull should be alone, not on a date, but out at sea, it's one true love that heals all previous loves that have been lost.
A nice dinner, and then to a concert at the hollywood forever cemetary! trentinla@aol.com
I would take this skull to dinner at my fave place downtown at the sleepless goat and then out to a scary movie where we could cuddle up.. then out for a romantic stroll in the local cemetery ;) Beatrix_kiddo1978@hotmail.com
The skull would go on a date with my husband and I to San Francisco. We'll go to the Mission to paint a mural with friends, then head to our favorite papusa spot. All the while taking pictures that will post to instagram and facebook. (side note: my husband just got a tattoo of the anchor on his foot to represent me and our soon to be born baby). :)
I would take "Til Death Do Us Part" on a surprise flight to vegas...Grabbing our 57 convertible rental and cruising the strip for a while soaking up some Vegas sun. Hitting the voodoo lounge for a cocktail for two in a secluded booth *wiggles eyebrows* if ya know what I mean. After a bit o cheeky fun back to the strip to the drive thru chapel of love. We exchange vows then back to our room and some of that fancy shmancy ky lube...oh hell yeah I loooooove this piece.
I have a trip planned in the next few months and would love to take "HIM" with me to Peru, we would sit amongst the ruins of Macchu Piccu and watch the sun rise, or toast one another at sunset in this magnificent setting
I would take this amazing art to romantic movie then to a tragic drama. Then I'd take it dancing for fun!
Amanda.hicks55@Gmail.com
A nice quiet cemetery on a full moon and sit on a bench and enjoy.
The most suitable date that I can imagine is to a rock concert from Crucified Barbara where they play music from the album "‘Til death do us party" and we will be headbaninging and holding hands (or anchors..)
We would enjoy a midnight candle lit picnic under the stars for pudding we can share a flask of Bailey's hot chocolate and cuddle each other to keep warm. Laura_howarth@msn.com
Because it is so beautiful - first we'd head over to the National Gallery of Art, then a fantastic Native American meal at the Mitsitam Cafe of Museum of the American Indian. Afterwards, wed go a bock away to the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, the national museum for contemporary art, so it could feel at home.

Til Death Do Us Part and my Revolutionary Heart will make the perfect companionship in a winters cold night.... It's snowy here in Chicago... the wind blows strong and with it the the smell of love... shifting, from east to west, from north to south... Oh love, you are so close yet so far away! Lets have a date with candle lights, while the snow gently falls outside....

That beautiful of a piece I think I would take it everywhere with me, and would never stop smiling. Amazing stuff.
arcanadei@excite.com
I would take Skully somewhere fancy, like the Red Lobster. Then we'd head over to a local cemetery where the tombstones are made with phosphorous, and bask in the glory of the moonlight and glowing graveyard, Skully with his face laying against my breast, listening to the rhythm of my heartbeat. Then, I guess I'd fry him an egg or something for breakfast. Speedivals1@yahoo.com
In my house on wheels (camper because of my fiance's job). Would make crab legs and homemade cheesecake. This year is in CO. Next year, who knows! Being newly engaged, it will be with us on our travels and then until our ultimate destination, Till Death Do Us Part.
Onyx134@hotmail.com
I would take this with me to visit my Mom at the cemetery, she would understand. Speedyvta@gmail.com
I would take this skeleton's heart with me to work as a history professor. It would be with me while I held office hours and counseled students individually; it would dazzle my senior seminar; dangle from my clothing as I deliver a lecture; and perhaps, nestle close to my own heart in a faculty meeting. Later, we could have some romantic downtime in front of the computer together, where she could inspire me in my writing.
I love this very deeply. ncaciola@gmail.com
I would take this Heart Skull to a romantic dinner with Lobster & Champagne, then we would go to a movie theater & sit in the back row so we can have some PDA in the dark... then off to a dark, little bar for a night cap; maybe some slow dancing -- then home to be alone :-)
I would take the skull out for fondue and champagne, and then to my best friends' engagement party, where it would help me give a speech! osteophile@icloud.com
I would go on a date to the dia de los muertos celebration.
Cparry1071@aol.com

I would take it on 2 dates actually. One on Fat Tuesday in New Orleans cause everyones, everyones would be so jealous! The second would be on Dias De Los Muertos in Mexico! Because, why the hell not accessorize with the coolest damn skull on that day!#liz.almonte@gmail.com
I would take this skull out to the cemetery that my great grandfather nine generations back Duncan McArther is resting. He was the 11th governor of Ohio. The cemetery is located at the top of a hill in the middle of Chillicothe, Ohio, with a beautiful view of the small city that was the first capital of Ohio. I would fix us a romantic meal of bacon stuffed grouse and fondue which we would eat on a blanket as we watched the sun set. After dinner we could talk a long romantic walk through tar hallow and see if any ghosties come out to see us. We would end the night with some chocolate covered crickets and ants. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandview_Cemetery_(Chillicothe,_Ohio)
I'd take the skull to Downtown Disney for swing dancing!!
I wouldn't wear this necklace on a date (I don't date) but I would wear it on an almost daily basis ;)
I would take it out to our local pub trivia night. Maybe I'd win something for it... I'm not so good at trivia though.
I would take it on a date to the Sapphire Hotel in Portland, an old brothel with a dark red candlelit bar.
Patsydarlingpdx@gmail.com
My skull will not just go on a date with me, he will be going on a journey with me 'Till death do us Part'. This skull would mean so much to me. I have lost a son. Struggle in love and try to stay grounded as much as I can, well except when I travel overseas to visit my loved ones in England. Beautiful piece!
I wouldn't take this skull on a date, I'd make him take me!! :D He'd like me so much, that he'd take me to meet his parents ;)
I would take this awesome skull to Electric Ladyland Tattoo in New Orleans so that I could get them to duplicate the skull on my body so I could carry it with me forever!
i would take it out to dinner on the moshulu, a 20th century sailing ship converted into a restaurant that is supposedly haunted.
I would give this treasure to my dear deserving aunt to take on a date of her choice. Her birthday is today and she does everything for our family! She has been the glue that has kept everyone together since her parents', my grandparents', passing. Your skilled artistry and her amazing heart have one thing in common...BEAUTY! I just know that she would LOVE it and it would not matter where they went.

The skull and I would head to Vermont for a weekend of dating while competing in the Death Race. It would be on my hip as I trudged thru mud, water, up mountains and thru ravines, and watch me chop wood, carry rocks, perform dead lifts, and laugh while I suffer thru 1000's of burpees and squats. The when I'm done, it'll cheat on me with the skull trophy I'll get for finishing the race. Can't trust a skull anyways.

I would wear this on a date to see the Texas Rollergirls & to Anarchy Championship Wrestling! I love Skull art, it is awesome!
BreeZerker@att.net
I would take this skull to a date at a nice jazz restaurant with my boyfriend. While we listen to spoken word and poetry I will hand the skull to him poetically saying, "Til Death Do Us Part".
Definitely Hooters and a horror movie. It's a Valentine's tradition. :)
We would journey to the Indian Ocean where we would float out on a small skiff with an Organ Grinder and his monkey serenading us with funeral fugues. We would dine beneath the stars on saltine crackers and head cheese, menudo and pickled pigs feet, reciting our favorites by Edgar Allan Poe. It would be a cranial delight!
I would take this skull on a date to The Mummer's Museum. There we could get our fill of the macabre. kimberly@eyesandpurose.com
I would take the skull to the bedroom to worship it as it deserves. Why beat around the bush?
i will take it on a date to a horror movie and then out to hang with my grown daughter and all her goth friends to show it off sjellenberg@gmail.com

cypherindigo@gmail.com
I would dress very elegantly and take the skull to the Event "Twisted World: Divine Decadence"
I will take this, and my husband, to a gallery opening featuring dark and obscure artists on valentines. Then we'd head home, where I would cook our favorite dish. Set up computers together and game the rest of the night, while our mix CD plays in the background and the heart dangling above the computers =)
mari.mortem@gmail.com
We are having a burleque birthday party for a friend...how cool would this look with my corset & tutu! <3
burlesque... lol, sorry about that!
To the Roller Derby Rink, so it can experience my true love. Girls on skates bashing each other
I will take this skull to the Dragstrip to ride with me in my car..
Clearly this Piece needs to be taken to an exclusive evening exhibit, like Nature Nocturn, at the Canadian Museum of Nature. Classy, energetic and fun. (Plus light shows, open exhibits, and dancing)
msheppard91@live.ca
Where wouldn't I take this dark and divine heart?! Oh, if I won this, as John Keats wrote, I'd "swoon to death!" Every day with this would be a walk with the Romantics. I would start by taking it to the Bodies Revealed Exhibit currently on view. My boyfriend who tries to talk me out of anything that I find related to ships an/or encourages me to paint anything that is related to the sea, could come along, too! To see this fella hanging above my painting desk would make every day a date with my soul...

This bad-assed baby and I would go romping at Cherry Cola's and Bovine Sex club in Downtown Toronto. Every heavily tattooed girl needs to flaunt some of Josh's ornate works around!
miss_alienation@hotmail.com
With such a gorgeous date, nothing would suffice, short of a night on Broadway - dinner, the hottest ticket in town to the best show, and apres show cocktails.
... and then a visit to see my etchings.
I would take this to my room and hang it over my bed to admire each and every day :)
larson3920@msn.com
We would begin our date in the early morning, meeting for coffee at the Gypsy bean coffee house where we could enjoy getting to know one another over the wonderful aromas of chickory coffee, espresso, and almond pastries. I'd tell Skully all about the yearly Dia de Los Muertos celebration and parades in the area, and his smile would melt me from the get-go.
We would then travel into Ohio City where we would explore the West Side Market, a marvelous shopping experience and historical landmark in Cleveland. After buying the finest meats, cheeses, fruits, olives, and wines, we would head over to the various artsy neighborhoods, and marvel in the many installations therein.
Later in the day, I'd take Mr. Skull to Momocho for some tequila tastings, and munch on some guacamole stuffed with a marvelous center of goat cheese.
Our tongues will certainly loosen by this point, so why not take a romantic stroll along Lake Erie? I'd show Skully the Wagner statue, and explain how controversial it is in the area, hoping to impress him with my knowledge of musical history.
We'd surely wind up sitting on the rocks down by the pier, maybe make out while watching the gulls fight for the most up-to-date trashy delights. We might also explore how deep we're getting at this point, and toss that li'l anchor out into the waters for a test-run.
After lifting the anchor from the depths, we would then head back to my place where we would pop open a nice Malbec and exchange past love failures. A few tears might be shed, but music will help us through. We would spend the next couple hours sharing all the bands we like, and Skully would have no choice but to be awe-stricken by my massive vinyl collection.
We'd probably realize we drank too much, and although we'd munched on the goodies we bought earlier at the market, real sustenance would be in order. We may bicker a bit on this, but something tells me Skully would want a really romantic dinner. So we'd head to La Dolce Vita in Little Italy. The food there is divine, and it's Monday, so they have opera!
As we sit slurping on our spaghetti, I notice a beautiful young lady heading our way. I hear the beginnings of the "Habanera" from Bizet's Carmen, jump from my seat, and begin serenading Skully in my most sultry and amazing voice. It's a little shaky, being tipsy as I am, but he is absolutely smitten, and that young Chica turns away before she even had the chance with my Skully-wully!
We would end the night with a deep, passionate kiss, our hearts fluttering in our throats, and struggling with who will be the first to let go from this amazing embrace. I would feel our inner rhythms sync as the beginnings of forever stab our hearts simultaneously, knowing this time, it's the real deal.

I would take this heart skull on a date to my neighborhood cemetery, because no one ever bothers one parked in the lot at the cemetery and I would want to be alone, uninterrupted, in a parked car, with my skull. skylers_mom@yahoo.com

I would take this lovely piece of work onto the grandest yacht I could find. From there I would sail the seven seas to show that my love for it stretches all over the world. When my days finally grow dim, I would pass my love onto another so that the fire of our love may burn for all eternity.

I would take this skull on a "date" with me to the Death Race (www.youmaydie.org) in June 2013 where it would be with me when I push myself beyond my limits. It would be a source of comfort to me when I'm crying and want to quit. And it would give me strength and motivation to finish the race. By taking it with me on such a life changing ordeal the skull already steeped with meaning will become even more to me and will mean something different to me than anyone else.

ispywithmycraftyeyes@live.com
We'd go to Voodoo Donuts (22 SW 3rd Avenue, "just south of the Burnside Bridge" in downtown Portland) and get a bag of maple and bacon bars, or maybe dirty snowballs, so we have extras to offer the various homeless as we stroll Burnside on our way to Powell's City of Books where we will peruse copies of "Love me or kill me" the collection of Sarah Kane plays, and "Famous Last Words" or perhaps "Skeletons of the Heart" by Pearl Mitchell. Good times.
it's really cool--I had two thoughts--I'd like to wear it , and the 2nd, hang it on my door with my bells and and symbols
really cool --I'd wear it out to my fav Mexican restaurant which is Locos Amigos and then hang it on the back of my door at home where I have bells and other symbols hanging

Nice piece by the way! Thanks.

I would annoint this beautiful work of art with frankincense oil, wrap it in a soft silk scarf, and take it to the top of Pikes Peak here in my hometown of Colorado Springs.

Then later we're going home and going to probably be in bed for the rest of the night if you understand what I mean...then in the morning we're going for massages and then to another favorite place to eat. So that's a really long date but hey, it's going to be so much fun and time for lovin!
I would take this awesome skull on an awesome night out with my daughter and my friends to the Kid Rock concert. We will have a blast dancing and rockin' all night long! Afterwards we'll hit an all night restaurant and laugh about how much fun we had!! It will be the best night out ever!!
We go out as a family (of 6)for V-Day so we'd take it to our favorite place to eat "Masa's House" then stop as usual to place in the fountains by SCOMA....before all the kids 'get too cool' for it.
hollyandfreddie@cox.net
I just got out of the hospital and am recovering from surgery on medical leave so I can't take it outside on a date. So I would enjoy it at home with my husband. Looking at it will remind me of how much he is my rock and how he has been there for me during this surgery and everything else for the past 15 years. We had a masquerade Halloween wedding and it would also stand to remind me of our special day.

I would take it to Uptown Sedona and sit on a bench and talk to it. When people asked me about it, I would say it was a physical manifestation of my psychic tattoos and ask if they would like a aura reading from it.

I'm such an Anti-Valentine's person but this piece gave even me the warm fuzzies. I would cook it a nice home cooked meal, cuddle with it on the couch while watching a movie then try kissing it at the end of the night!

i would carry thee down
to the sea,the rocky shores of Maine-
we would sit a while with empty smiles
and reminisce
of time
that ticked...
and things
we miss
like sinking ships
and aimless drifts
and when we had too much to think,
we'd do it all again.

Since I work at a florist shop for Valentine's week, I am super tired after work, busy dealing with all the last minute Calentine orders. I would ask if we could stay homeand order in, and enjoy margaritas and maybe a foot massage.
to the world famous Milestone in Charlotte NC. Thanks for the opportunity, please contact me at christinasuemetz@gmail.com.
I would take this skull out to the beach at night in the snow, to drink hot toddies and howl at the moon. cin@riseup.net
This skull will most definitely be accompaning me into a mosh pit at house of blues. ahmee75@gmail.com
We'd go bowling!

I would take my skull date to the Mutters museum in Philly! Then maybe the melting pot. But don't worry, I won't dip his arrow into the gooey goodness. Then I would take him to bed with me. My other skulls will probably be jealous of his sheer superiority. This is a risk I'm willing to take!
I. Would hang it from the rearview mirror so I could enjoy it all the time AND. It's great advertising for him! Matthewwilcox@sbcglobal.net
Sounds epic!
TAKE ITSELF SHOWS would be for others "who admire YOU CAN NOT HAVE"
I will take it to East beach and hang around the memory tree decorated by locals as commemoration to love
Well I would take this on a date to where I met my husband to see a show and hang in my VIP booth at the Junk Yard (concert venue) After the show I would take it to where we had our wedding reception and annually visit, Frankies Tiki Bar in Las Vegas. Since we have weathered many storms and stayed together and are still alive post, cancer, blindness in one eye, deafness in one ear...it's a fitting symbol of our love.
This is an amazing piece, and we are now huge fans of the work and creative genius.
I would take this skull to all of significant places that loved happened good or bad. Those hand full of spots on the planet where who I am in my soul happened.The place I was most broken, the place my heart was frozen, thawed, opened, taken, and kept. Such an artful symbolic totem worn to those places would allow it to be a unifying reminder of all that has made me who i am and a vessel of all the energy that will help create who I become. Please let me fill it with my memories. memory32@windstream.net
We would go out to my favorite cemetery and share a box of wine. Nothing but the best for my special skull.

I would take this skull on a road trip from TX to CA in April. I'd take pictures with it at every stop so that it could remember what fun we had.
i'd like to swim with you in a river of red wine. Come to France dear
I would wear this as a pendant or a belly chain. Where? Everywhere of course.

Thank you for the contest!
I would take "'Til Death Do Us Part" to the quaint little Cajun restaurant where I met the love of my life. We would drink Rum Runners and eat crawfish and beignets. Since my "love" only used me to marry her so she could play with my heart at will then throw it away like it was a piece of trash, then leave me without a word, I no longer have a heart. I need this one to fill the void.
We would go back to nature, for a walk in a rainforest on a sunny afternoon, listen to its surprising sounds and enjoy the colours. At midnight I would leave you against a massive trunk and go my way down the river.
(hey that's fictional, right, we would never separate for real!)

I would take this skull to the secret lair my brothers an I built out of fallen trees and branches in the forest behind our mother's home. It looks like a giant tent. Inside we would enjoy a picnic on a classic plaid blanket, sitting by the hand- made fire pit and enjoying the sounds of the forest as the moon's light fell in rays through the small spaces between the branches of our shelter.
I would take this beautiful heart to a place of new beginnings....our new house!! My husband's Valentine's Day surprise is news that we will be moving into our new home!! Finally he will have a closet!! I'm a bit of a clothes horse and have stuffed the current closet to capacity. Well.. beyond capacity. So he's been reduced to having his clothing kept in various baskets.. I now vow to respect his closet space and not allow my clothing to trespass into his territory... :)
Our children are super excited about having their own rooms!! We have 3 children and 1 adult as I like to say... My oldest daughter is 20.. My youngest daughter is 3. My son is 12 and I have another daughter who is 9..I realize now time flies it seems like yesterday my oldest was just 3...I vow to appreciate the moments I have now.. Good and bad.. I've recently realized that as you look back on your youth even the lowest points in life have meaning and an unexpected beauty..
So for me the perfect place to take this heart is HOME... To be a part of my family,my future, my life and all that we make of it...
I have the most perfect spot picked out... On my husband's side of the closet!! :P

I would take this Heart Skull to a romantic dinner with Lobster & Champagne, then we would go to a movie theater & sit in the back row so we can have some PDA in the dark... then off to a dark, little bar for a sexy night cap... maybe a little slow dancing -- then home to be alone :-)

My husband and I would take this beautiful piece of art to the very spot we exchanged our vows on our first anniversary. We chose to exchange our vows with just him and I; the celebrant the only other human around. We wanted to be surrounded by nature, focused only on each other and our love for each other. We unfortunately did not get to take any pictures on the day as we wanted to be married on the beach, even though Hurricane Sandy was in full effect. This beach has always been a meaningful spot for us. We plan to go back every year on the day, Til Death Do Us Part And Beyond.

I'd take this on a dinner cruise and then a romantic walk afterward.

I would take this beauty everywhere!
i would take this skull on a date to an underground fetish club.

I would use it in every glamour portrait - especially with cleavage (tastefully so) interplay. Draped around a neck, bicep or chest. I think it would work fine in colour or B&W. It would be more than a prop, more of a touchstone or signature of the momento mori that is every while-I-am-young photo I have ever taken.
I wish to make it clear that photography students are NOT going to be involved as models.
Congrats on finding the technology to meet your hyper-detailed vision!

I think a picnic in the cemetery would be fun!
We would do the ghost tour of Old Town. The oldest part of Albuquerque and just hang out.
I would take this for a ride around Tampa Bay because of the pirate history and celebrations. I would photograph it in front of the pirate ship, the pirates grotto, Old Tampa Bay, and Jules Verne/Ballast Point Park, documenting the pieces travels - uniquely photographed, of course. :) Most importantly, my last stop would be at my fathers house. A seafaring man who taught me the constellations in case I ever had to navigate by the stars. He also taught me that if I take from the ocean then I must give back. Since the piece invokes a bit of pirate-skullery, but also in the shape of a heart, it only seemed fitting. Dad played pirates with all of his buddies in the USCG. Hence, these were my thoughts, instantly. Good Luck to all.
would set up a Blind date with this skull & my Girlfriend. She likes skull's & the skull would find her more interesting than Me.

I would enjoy a scenic drive to a cabin in the woods...
I would take this skull on a date of walking around Minnehaha Falls, which is a gorgeous park any time of year.

I've been dealing with some depression issues since having my daughter a year and a half ago. I've stepped up and made behavioral changes for myself instead of relying on medication to do if for me. Now chemical free and utilizing good behaviors on a daily basis to make my life better, I think I owe my husband a night out to paint the town red. And what a better way to do so than with this lovely bauble? He's stood by me as amazing support through all of this. TIL DEATH DO US PART!
