Customized Pieces

I also do custom pieces through Etsy.  You can view art on my shop through simplygourdgeous1.  I'm in the process of doing two more pieces.  One of women in South Africa, and another of Mt. Baker, Washington, incorporating American Bald Eagles. Will display these when finished.

I did this one for someone who had been to Mt. Kilimanjaro, and asked me to replicate what he saw there. I used inlay with black beads around the mouth of the gourd.  I research all my custom gourds for patterns, traditions and customs of the region.
