Gourds by Grace


"Sea Life 2"
Dyed and burned
$60

I am a watercolor and acrylic artist but have recently discovered the world of gourds.

I love every facet of this new (to me) art form -- from the cleaning, to burning, to sanding, to dying -- you name it.

It is a great challenge to be working in 3-D instead of 2-D.

You may see my gourd exclusively at the Off Track Gallery in Encinitas.
