My career as an Elementary Educator required continuing education and during an "uninspiring" course I began sketching. This led to my becoming an Artist. Over the years, I have investigated several medias, finally settling on Gourds. Each Gourd is unique, and leads me in its artistic creation. On most, I use "Pyrography" to enhance and sculpt the gourd. Many gourds are embellished with other materials, such as dyes, leather, shells, and beads. The gourds may be displayed as they are, or to exhibit your dry arrangements, fruit or other treasures.
