He is always happy to answer any questions you may have about the world of gourds.

Although he always has had an interest in art, Ted Sorensen’s second career, as a Western Artist, began in earnest a few years ago.  Working with oils, he occasionally paints wildlife, but primarily chooses to depict the culture and heritage of Native Americans.

His studio is located in their home at 567 So., 400 E., the first house south of Mill Creek.
