This book is by far the best I have read about Gourd painting. It details gourd prep and painting so that even a beginner can be successful at producing a painted gourd that they are proud to show or offer for sale. The instructions are clear and concise with illustrations and pictures that provide visual help as you paint your gourd. The patterns are as varied as the painters. There is a pattern available that every painter would like. The book provides tips on buying gourds,growing gourds and identifying the different types of gourds. Sammie Crawford provides concise easy to follow instructions from choosing a gourd, to prepping and painting your gourd. Both novice and experience painters can learn to paint gourds successfully with this comprehensive book.

I am going to try painting on gourds. Will be better able to review when I have actually completed a project. Like the variety of sizes and gourds this artist used.

I bought this product because the price was something that I couldn't turn down. I had previously seen this book and was always curious about its contents. Once I received it, I fell in love with every detail of the book. It's like no other gourd book that I have. Most gourd books are more like magazines, but this is like an actual book filled with all sorts of patterns and demonstrations. I can't wait to get started.
