This blog will be a journey through my quiltwork and some artwork and my life...sometimes the muse' is not active but I'll try I was a gourd artist until my hands gave out, now I thoroughly enjoy playing with fabric and paint. Enjoy most everything that nature has to offer. Family and friends are very important. I live in the beautiful Peace River Area of northeastern BC.

Vision Gourd
I just wanted to share this with you. I do several Vision Gourds a year, I learned this process for my friend Leah Comerford.
Every gourd is different, so the amount or them of characters varies according to the mold markings on the gourd. It is much like looking at the clouds and picking out Characters :)
I work on one of these gourds for months, often setting them aside, a new day will bring a new image.
You can view more pictures of this gourd at http://www.gourdsbyrhoda.com/gallery10.html

Incredible!!
Thanks for posting this Rhoda. It's wonderful. I see things everywhere and they are usually clear enough to make a sketch of them. We are kindred spirits!
