Gourd Art Southwest

Gourd Art Southwest is a unique collection of "Wild Things" made from gourds. Each gourd is a unique piece of fine art, bursting with color and whimsy. Signore's work draws rich flavor from America's great Southwest and often combines it with kindred spirits from the plains of Africa. Gourdy Cougars, Coyotes, Bobcats, and Jack Rabbits, hang out with Elephants, Tigers, Giraffes and all manner of creatures, real and magical in the award winning work of Green Valley, AZ, Master Gourder, Carol Signore.

Meet the Artist

Carol Signore discovered gourds in 2009. Her transition from water colorist in Pennsylvania to gourd artist in Arizona was a natural one because working with paints and dyes on gourds was similar to washing a scene with watercolor, but on an endless variety of three dimensional canvases. Signore has enjoyed acquiring new skills too, like carving, wood burning and embellishing her gourds. Signore is always challenged by the process of bringing out the full potential and unique beauty of each gourd.

Carol teaches gourd art classes in Green Valley, AZ.
