A few of the gourds I've painted


#57 - a keeper
#61 - went to Japan


#74 Wall hanging sold to Gwen



#66 For Tara: mother & child
I have to be careful where I post this one. She has an exposed breast and apparently some find it offensive despite the fact that it is maternal not erotic.. rediculous.

You are soooooo talented. Have you always painted? I love the whole idea of painting on the gourds - it's so unusual. Do you have a "store"?

Helen Eyers said...

Thank you Linda! I've painted on and off since high school..Mrs Sheary's art class. I don't have a store but I hope to feature 4-sale items on my Webshots albums in the future. So far I'm getting out there by word of mouth but I've been so busy with the grandbaby that I havent had time to paint. Thanks again for the comment.

I am SO PROUD of my gourd lady! I love Sacajawea, too! If she needs a home, I'll take her.

I have 2 of these lovely ladies and just so admire all the tiny details and wonderful designs. They are true artistic treasures. bev
