Pumpkin Carving 

I have roughly three different mindsets when it comes to making art...a conceptual one, a technical one and a playful one. Obviously there are a few hybrids like community projects, but over all I find this is an apt way of looking at it. 

Pumpkin carving for me falls largely in the playful category; Where the main goal is to create and give joy. 

This blog will cover my seasonal pumpkin-quests and endeavors, documenting my work and providing a few tips and tricks I learn along the way. If you would like to commission me, buy a pumpkin or hire me for a small private carving party, please feel free to reach out using the "Commission Me" button on my website at the bottom of this blog.

Helen&Pearl Commission

Large or highly details pumpkins typically take 5-7 days, while smaller ones, or bulk copies 2-3 days time.  Pricing varies between $50 - $300 based on size and intricacy of design. I offer discounts for multiple pumpkins, or you can hire me for a night or event by the hour.

As a reference point the Ewan Pumpkin took around 4hrs over 3 different days to carve and cost $280. However, if you wanted 4 of the same exact pumpkin or perhaps a simplified version I could offer $800 total making it $200/pumpkin.  Initial time estimates and pricing does not include delivery. 

Painted-pumpkin prices also very by size.
