| Yes, it's a lovely Vase to put your dried Fall flower arrangement in! |
I have taken the advice and encouragement from all my blogger friends and have entered my pieces into the "Gourd Fine Art Show" at the Ozark Classic Crafts Gallery in Hardy, AR for the month of September, the "Gourd Fine Art Show" at the Riverview Emporium Gallery in Norfolk, AR for the month of October and I'll have my pieces at the "Craftsfest" at the Baxter County Fairgrounds in Mountain Home, AR on November 19th & 20th. Yes, all my art pieces will be for sale at each of the places that I just mentioned. I would like to show you a couple more pieces that I've completed along with prices. I will be happy to ship a piece out to you and add the postage to the final price if you decide you would like to have one of my pieces. The following is a piece that took considerable time to make and is three different gourds put together. I love this piece, and I think it is very special.

Good grief Barbara these are fabulous! Can't believe they are created from gourds! They look like very expensive studio ceramics!
As one of my handmade gift prizewinners I'm rather embarrassed to offer you one of my little creations. I'd love you to pick something and contact me on ann_hayes@dsl.pipex.com.

My husband and our 21 year old son just watched the "rescue" of all the Aquarium marine life in New Orleans after Katrina. One huge thing was the penguins!
How appropriate for us we watched this on DVR tonight. They were all found safe! Even the 24 year old one. Older than our youngest son. YAY!
Great timing!
Love your work. My goodness!!!!!
This was the perfect post to read tonight!

Oh wow, Barbara--magnificent!!! They should be in a museum!!! Wow...they are fabulous!
Hugs,

Hi Barbara! Oh, your work is so beautiful! You are very talented and I wish you well as you enter your pieces in the show! My grandmother used to grow gourds in her backyard. She just made a dipper out of hers! :)
Be a sweetie,
shelia ;)
Barbara, these are fabulous! Love the penguins...love them all! WOW. When you say you've been busy, you weren't kidding!
Ohhhhh! Your work is just fabulous! What an artist you are! I love it all, but of these pictures, I kept going back to the graceful vase in the first one...love those heavenly colors!
And, that darling little Penguin...how much work. I wouldn't know where to start.
It is hard to believe these are made from gourds!!!
Thank you for the great message you left me...I was just pondering.

Your pieces are beautiful. I wouldn't have known that pitcher was a gourd...amazing.
Your gourd art is amazing, the penguin and the swan are unbelievable and the colors of the others are beautiful fall colors. I would love to take classes in this art form. If you hear of other classes in MO please let me know. Margaret mhdiggs@hughes.net
Barbara, Your gourds are gorgeous! I'm sure they'll do well at the art fairs you'll be at! Thanks for stopping by to see me too! Suzie
How fun! You are so creative! I like the penguins best because I've been collecting them for years. Second I like the fall leaves one. Thank you for stopping by my blog -- it was great to hear from you!
I adore the gourd container. Open an etsy shop lady and get to work :)
I love them all - and especially the penguins!
Barbara, that's amazing. I had no idea there even was gourd art. You do beautiful work.
