My latest gourd venture, a forest scene in pyrography and carved bottom.  I am posting the views as the gourd is turned.  Let's go for a little walk...

This has been on the back-burner for a few years, to record video for gourd crafting demonstrations and tutorials.  I wanted to have some video content for students are aren't able to take a class with me in person, as well as try to reach some potential new gourders that are just looking to get into the craft.

All of us have been affected by virus lockdowns, and as an artist and instructor I have found my only lifeline is the internet, since so many events are canceled.  I am sure you have also had many disappointments in this crazy year.  So that was my impetus to plow ahead and begin to make some content for you!

No longer waiting until I have the right camera equipment, or the perfect lighting, or any other excuse that kept holding me back!
