Jane's Gourd
Art
Gourd art has fascinated the Sagers
since their retirement to Arizona nearly twenty years ago,
starting on the next phase of their lives.
‘We
were never looking for a job’ Jane says of their gourd artwork.
‘It is a hobby that’s gone out of
control.’
Both Hal and Jane have gained fine
reputations as Gourd Artists.
Hal’s masks speak for themselves.
Jane produces figures in both African and Native American
styles, large and small, as well as bowls, lamps and Gourd Quilts.
All are original designs.
The Quilts are wall hangings composed of four-inch
squares assembled to fit any space.
Each square is decorated with a unique design, colored
with leather dye and acrylic paint.
Some are embellished as well.
Hal and Jane create one-of-a-kind
original art to enhance any home or décor. Of course, all
creations start with a Gourd.
The Sagers enjoy beginning with this
natural medium and transforming it into an interesting and
beautiful piece of art.
