Oklahoma’s “Pumpkin Gutter” Is a World-Famous Halloween Artist

Imagine being renowned worldwide for being exceptionally good at your hobby.

I think it's fair that most of us have that universal dream deep down inside of us. Whether you play the guitar waiting for the day you become a star, sing to thousands of screaming fans in the privacy of your own shower each morning, or whatever your fun hobby happens to be.

This is something that came to fruition for one Okie, known as The Pumpkin Gutter.

Who Is The Pumpkin Gutter?

Hollis, OK native Scott Cummins is ridiculously good at carving pumpkins. He's also an incredible artist whom Hollis youths met while getting their caricatures drawn at the old annual Black Eyed Pea Festival, but his pumpkin carving is beyond what anyone else does.

It's talent like this that earned Scott his worldwide reputation and appearances on TV's Food Network.

Scott works as a beloved art teacher in the Texas panhandle, but it's this time of year he transforms again into the Pumpkin Gutter. If you've had the privilege to sit and watch him, it's pretty amazing. There's no plan or anything, he'll just sit down and start carving his next incredible creation.

He's Also Not Shy About Teaching You How To Carve

If you'd like to try carving his way, there are some great resources on his website. Tutorials, walk-throughs, tools, and just how to get started. He also shares his newest creations over on his Facebook page.

Even though Scott is incredibly famous in the pumpkin carving category, he's still the same lovable goofball he's always been. If you ever get the chance to sit down and watch him do his thing, do it. He has some fantastically hilarious stories too.

Here are some of his amazing works.
