Practice gourd

This is my first attempt at doing gourd art...I learned quite a lot about what works, what doesn't work, etc, but I a pretty happy with the results. This gourd is only 4 inches tall.

I really like that!! It is more than just a face on a gourd--really art!!!

I have no idea how you did the feathers, but they are really nice.
