Beautiful work, love the long ones too.

Do you have to spray with a varnish to get that lovely sheen on them.

Those are beautiful gourds. I haven't painted any of the gourds we had before, I have made birdhouses and bird feeders out of them in the past.

Your gourds are beautiful. My son is a gourd artist, he uses them to make masks. Take a look at www.gourdmasque.com to see his work.

Your son's work is great, but something I've never tried to do.
