  | | | | Robert Rivera Through his artistic ability, Robert transforms the lowly gourd into an object of beauty, power and symbolism. As such, they become highly collectible fine art objects. Robert was probably the first to use gourds as a fine art medium in a contemporary southwestern fashion. Drawing from a limitless supply of ideas and designs, he says, “Many of them come from the area itself. I get a lot of inspiration from the Native American people, but most of the pieces come directly out of my own head. Every gourd is different. I can walk up to one and instantly see what would look good with it.” To view the works of Robert Rivera, click here |
