Featured Gourd Art

This beautiful gourd pot with stag is by Wanda Holland Castillo! We love Wanda's attention to detail in this piece and the bold red she chose for the body of the gourd, which contrasts perfectly with the natural color she left for the frame of her design and the black background on her image. Well done, Wanda! Be sure to let Wanda know how much you appreciate her sharing her art with us by visiting her post here.
