This challenge is proving to be quite fun! Today's subject is a Christmas Gnome that was given to us several years ago from our youngest son and his family. He is a fun little guy who enjoys living in an eclectic environment ... lucky us! A couple Christmas' back I knitted Christmas socks for all of our children, their spouses, and all of the grandkids ... well, Christmas Gnome looked a bit left out, so of course I knitted him his own personal Christmas Stocking. The stocking he is holding is that sock!

In this sketch I have also incorporated colored ink pens! The "75 Day Sketch Challenge" guidelines stipulate the use of pen and ink only ... nothing said it had to be limited to just black ink! I like him so well I have decided to make Christmas Gift tags using this little fellow. Fun!
Merry Christmas Friends!

This would make a wonderful Christmas card!
ReplyDeleteMuch like your "Victorian Christmas" illustration! I did run off mini prints of this sketch today to use as Christmas gift tags ... they turned out pretty cool!
