Gourd Instructor for Cook Forest Hi Everyone!
I just wanted to let everybody know that I was able to get a gourd instructor for the Wood burning Celebrations at Cook Forest her name is Crystal Snook...here is her background...she will be teaching a class at the show...
Crystal Snook- has been a Gourd Artisan since 2001.
She is the President of the PA Gourd Society which is the Chi Chapter of the American Gourd Society. She is also a charter member of the PA Gourd Society which was founded in
April 2002 by Jenn Avery and a member of the American Gourd Society.
Crystal has been teaching various classes on gourds for about 4 years and she also give presentations to garden clubs, business
associations and other organizations.
Pyrography is one of her favorite techniques because the burning
goes so well with the natural color of the gourd.
She feels Gourds are a wonderful medium to work with
because you can never run out of ideas and you don't have to be a talented artist or master crafts person to create a beautiful gourd.
I have updated my website for those of you who want more information
about the show... http://www.geocities.com/dangee1/2008WoodburningCompetition.html?
