some wonderful pumpkin art.
These
wonderful pumpkins were painted by Denise A. Wells, a Native American (Yankton
Sioux Tribe - S. Dakota), who has been painting pumpkins since 1997. "When
it was suggested by my former boss, (thanx Karen!) I thought it was a waste
of time until I got unbelievable feedback from people (especially children)
and a new yearly hobby was born. I only use acrylic paints and have done up
to 25 and 30 pumpkins during a season. I have a friend help me (D. Arrow) get
them painted and out the door. I donated painted pumpkins to the Headstart in
White River and now here in Yankton shortly after we moved here. I have told
many people over the years how much fun they are and thats a lot of the motivation
for doing so much work on something that will eventually spoil.....one customer
once asked me how long they last and I just said ' when I see a Chia Pet growing
on the back of the pumpkin....its time to chuck it!!
I also draw and paint and keep myself outta trouble that way! The Unicorn is
my personal fave every year and of course Spongebob-he's such a cutie! "
