A New Book


Since I carved the gnome's home, I have acquired an interest in gnomes. When I was at the plein aire, one of the artists mentioned a book about gnomes with great illustrations; so off I went to Amazon and found the book and it was delivered yesterday. It is really a cool book, it tells everything you've ever wanted to know about gnomes and then some. I figured I would like this fantasy as my favorite book is Watership Down, a book about a rabbit family living underground. This could give me inspiration for some new carvings, but I would like to finish a couple that I have started before moving on to something new.

I also have an interest in gnomes and I do have that book! We had a Christmas Retreat a couple of years back at The Center to the theme of gnomes. Fun! Now I must get "Watership Down"!
