Basketry and Gourds

 

Nadine Spier has been decorating gourds and weaving baskets since the mid-1980’s. As a child she spent many happy hours using a woodburning kit, then rediscovered woodburning a few years ago. Nadine passes along her skills to students in her gourd classes which are offered in many locations in Southern California. She is also a well-known basketmaker whose artistic vessels are exhibited internationally. She is the recipient of the Handweavers Guild of American Award of Excellence, in addition to many First Places and Best of Show. Articles about Nadine have been published in many magazines and newspaper articles and in 2002 she was featured on the Discovery Channel. For more info, see www.nadinespier.com.
