Hi Beth. Your videos are awesome. Could you tell me what tool you are using to cut with. I also design with gourds, and when I add color, I use shoe dye.

Hi Cheryl, thanks so much! I started out using a dremel with a flex shaft. It worked well, but I do prefer the master carver micro-pro, which is what I use now, pretty much exclusively. Same idea as the dremel, but it is a bit easier to control with fine detail work. Here is the link: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B088KVH8DL/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Shoe dye is a great option! Thanks so much for your interest 🙂

Dear Ms. Beth, your pumpkin species are very different from those in Turkey. Can you help us with their names and where we can find their seeds?
@BethKaneArtАй бұрын
All of the gourds I use are hard shell gourds. I mostly use kettle, bottle & cannonball varieties. I do not grow my own, so I cannot recommend a seed supplier but a quick internet search should give you plenty of options.

Thank you for your interest. My videos are not intended as tutorials. I make them so that the customers who buy my pieces can get a peak into my studio & see the “before / middle/ after” of the process for the sculpture that they bought or received as a gift. If others enjoy them too, that’s a bonus. Sometimes I am too involved in my work to manage the video process & sometimes the clips I take aren’t clear enough to include. Every moment of work is certainly not portrayed.

Thank you so much! Yes, absolutely - a dust collector is essential! While I use a variety of techniques & mediums, my go-to is alcohol ink.

I looked at your site , all beautiful works for sure . But I noticed one thing when you were carving this piece . You waited until your carving was completed , before you added color . Which I thought was odd 🤔 given the danger of accidentally having color getting onto the deeply carved areas , where you want to keep the natural color of the gourd light skin . My hand isn’t steady enough , to risk trying to add color ,and stain ! after such carving .i was wondering if you’ve tried coloring the gourd ,before any carving ??? Great work 👍
@BethKaneArt2 ай бұрын
Thank you for your thoughtful response. The order of operations is always a question for internal debate as I work on each gourd. Factors to consider are the properties & vulnerability of adjacent areas (as you stated), method of application (in the case of a mosaic effect the “grout” must be applied & wiped off), compatibility of protective finishes on each area, and the visibility & erasability of guidelines (e.g, if I ink the surface I can no longer draw / remove pencil marks that guide carving / burning). While I try to minimize the two steps forward, one step back process of the work (creating & removing marks), the gourd tango is a part of the mixed technique nature of my work. The order of operations I choose for each gourd is a risk assessment decision unique to each piece.

Hi Beth! I have always worked in wood but after watching your videos I might try power carving gourds! I wondered what you were using for the black coloring in the accent areas? Ink? Acrylic paint? Stain? Burning? Not sure what would stay on the gourd's surface. Thank you for sharing your creative process. It is fascinating to watch!
@BethKaneArt2 ай бұрын
Thank you so much! You will love gourds! There are obvious similarities to wood, but of course exciting differences as well :). I do a lot with pyrography but I think the areas you are referring to are those done with alcohol ink when on the non-porous skin of the gourd and simple acrylic paint on the porous, carved flesh. I hope this helps. Enjoy!
