    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.
