Creative Rims for Gourd Art by Marianne Barnes

In gourd art, there is a vast array of material that can be used when carving and decorating a gourd. When it comes to doing the rim, the options are just as varied. The best rims are those that complement the gourd's overall design. The rim completes the gourd--it makes the gourd look finished. Through more than 200 color images and tutorials from contributing artists, learn how to finish the rims of gourd bowls using chip stone, tubular beading, paper, coiling, leather, wire, clay, pine needle, and flowers. The rims illustrated range from the very simple to the extremely elaborate. A gallery of completed works will inspire your own creative ideas. This book is perfect for gourd artists of all skill levels.

The American Gourd Society has Marianne Barnes as a member. She instructs gourd workshops at John C Campbell, Belton Art Center, local patches, and national conferences. Her gourd art has earned her numerous prizes. She resides in the state of South Carolina.
