Artistic Visions Wildlife was selected to grace the cover of Taxidermy Today, the premier worldwide taxidermy magazine. The cover, shown at right, showcases one of our client's amazing trophies, a 10 foot Kodiak Brown Bear mounted by Aaron Simser, owner and taxidermist of Artistic Visions Wildlife. Aaron was also published in 3 separate issues of this esteemed magazine. It is truly an honor to be selected for this prestigious achievement. Artistic Visions strives to set the standard for quality and professionalism in the wildlife artistry industry as well as providing our clients with personal service and a timely turnaround in every mount.

 

Artistic Visions Wildlife Studio was selected by Cabela’s to demonstrate the craftsmanship of Wildlife Artistry at their retail store in Hamburg, PA during the Spring and Summer of 2009. These 2 day seminars were a huge success with very large turnouts. Customers from all over the nation were on hand to ask questions about the industry or the actual craft of taxidermy. They were able to observe Aaron mount a Cape Buffalo pedestal, life-size Bear, shoulder mount Moose, shoulder mount Black Wildebeest and numerous Whitetail Deer.

Artistic Visions was chosen for this prestigious position because of our professionalism, quality and customer care. It is a true honor for us to represent our artistry on one of the nation’s largest wildlife and hunting stages. It is the mission of Artistic Visions to promote professionalism as well as improve the quality that the taxidermy industry needs.
