Gourd with Wood order Burned Designs

Gourd with Wood Burned Designs

I created this piece of gourd art from a cannonball gourd. After cleaning and painting the inside black, I wood burned the lines on the outside freehand. The order finish is a non-glossy sealer. I spent hours and hours on this gourd, and I love the result. This is definitely one-of-a-kind.

Measures 6.25” diameter and is about 4.5” tall.

I signed the bottom of the gourd.

I have been making baskets since 1981, and I greatly enjoy doing these gourd works of art.
