The gourd lamp is beautiful. Would you be willing to share a list of your tools?

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 👍

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.

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.

Amazing! How do you finish your gourds, especially keeping the unpainted carved areas looking so natural?
@BethKaneArtАй бұрын
@@sandytroxel7823 thank you! The natural areas are always tricky. For this I used a water based polyurethane from Maria Dellos. www.mariasartcreations.com/
@sandytroxel7823Ай бұрын
@@BethKaneArt thank you, I definitely will look that up. I just used another brand of polyurethane varnish and my carved areas turned yellow. Very disappointed.
@BethKaneArtАй бұрын
@@sandytroxel7823 I am so sorry to hear this. There will always be a bit of yellowing but one way to minimize that is to dab the finish on with a makeup sponge in order to assure that only the minimum necessary to protect the area is applied. 2 coats of Maria’s, applied like that, is the least yellowing method I can suggest. You could also use an acrylic paint that matches the flesh. I have done that & been very pleasantly surprised at the results.
@sandytroxel7823Ай бұрын
Hi, I wanted to let know I contacted Maria today. She said unfortunately she is no longer offering the polyurethane finish as she can no longer get it. Thank you again for your beautiful works.
@BethKaneArt29 күн бұрын
@@sandytroxel7823 oh no… that is a shame! Ugh. I have a gourd that I experimented with, using different finishes in different patches to see which was best. I will grab that & share the results with you probably by the end of next week… My daughter’s wedding is this weekend so I have my hands full now, but I have put it on my list! In the meantime, I recommend joining the Facebook Group “Gourd Art Talk”. It is very helpful! You can post your questions or even search for a topic that has already been discussed (I brought up your same question last year).
