Gourds have been cultivated for thousands of years worldwide by many cultures for their usefulness as utensils, storage containers, and as ornaments. Many countries still use gourds as utensils, vessels and instruments daily.
Gourds mature on the vine in one growing season. They must then be dried for one year before they can be made into art objects. When the gourds are ready to use, each one is selected carefully to become a unique, one of a kind art object.

From the Garden to the Gallery

My studio expands as does my collection of gourds – in the house, on the deck and in the yard! Gourds, gourds –everywhere – finished gourds, gourds in progress, cleaned gourds, gourds that need cleaning!!
