This is a large vessle measuring 10" tall and 28-1/2" around with an asymetrical top and features a new technique. The oak leaves and branches surrounding the top are first burnt into the surface of the gourd and shades of orange, ochur, yellow and artprint brown are blended for each leaf. A small dental burr is then used to carve away the background - a very time consuming process using small strokes and avoiding cutting through to the interior of the gourd. The background is then given several applications of black acrylic to fill all the indentations. The inside of the vessel is painted black and sealed with polycrylic. This vessel sits flat.
