As you view Jerry’s art you will soon discover that each gourd he designs demonstrates its own true personality. Just as Tom Hank’s soccer ball named Wilson came to life in the movie, “Castaway,” Jerry’s gourd designs take on a unique character. Each creation is one of a kind. Just as every gourd is wonderfully different, so is Jerry’s final interpretation. Jerry’s intricate detailing of many eye-catching embellishments includes feathers, pyography markings, bone teeth, stone inlays, horse hair braids, brass hair cones, porcupine quills, buttons, beads, wire spirals, hematite stones and beadwork, and ammonite fossils. A variety of feathers dominate Jerry’s gourd designs. They include peacock feathers, red tip pheasant feathers, orange and black rooster feathers and head dress, turkey feathers, parrot feathers, guinea feathers and McCaw feathers. Jerry’s studio is located in beautiful Ruidoso New Mexico. All of his works are signed originals. Jerry says, “It is amazing as an artist to watch my art unfold into a unique creation as I work to emphasize the gourd’s natural beauty and unique attributes.
