Born and raised in Sweden, immigrated to the USA, worked for many years as a flight attendant with Pan Am and eventually landed in Marin, Nevada and now in Placer County. It has been several years since I picked up my first gourd which led me on an artistic journey, creating fine art with gourds as my chosen medium. Over the years I have been commissioned to create specific gourds. I take great pleasure in working with people to create unique pieces that fit their artistic desire. My greatest pleasure comes from taking someone’s abstract idea and making a piece of art that fits the image they had in mind.
Have a “gourdgeous” day
