Gourd family
I was on a roll with gourds. I created, painted some dolls on small gourds. They can be used as an ornaments or the smallest ones can be used as a necklace piece. In a meantime they are one gourd family. Some of them I painted, on some of them I use apoxie sculpt and used molds to create faces on a few other dolls. I really enjoy working with gourds.
It is like working with wood, you can feel the warm of the wood, smell of it...talking about the smell, this is not the best when I have to work with gourds though...And finally I finished the piece I started a year ago. It can be used a bowl and just a decorating piece. Again, I used some apoxie sculpt to decorate it.
Below are the gourds that I painted. Those gourds are 3 to 4" inches tall.
Let me know what you think. Thanks!

OMG, My Helen! These are ALL gorgeous! I can't decide which is prettiest! They are EQUALLY pretty! And I'll GLADLY tell you what I think: I think I'm not sure I should even TRY to paint on gourds after seeing yours! I'll just make a big old mess! LOL! I LOOOOVE your gourd dolls!
Hi Helen,
Oh how lovely to know that you have started posting again. Your gourds are lovely. I love what you have done. I have some gourds that a lovely lady sent me and I still haven't picked up the courage to do anything with them.
OH helen this are soooooooooo beautiful I love them all...wow not even the right words to express how much i love them...
Helen, is that first gourd doll for sale? I love all of them, but especially the first one. If she is for sale, would you e-mail me and tell me her price? I would love to buy her for Kelsey's art doll collection.
Hugs-
