Little Gnome

9x3 mixed media on 140 lb cold press wc paper done today. After pencil sketching the little gnome toy I put in white crayon marks for icy trees. White gouache was splattered into wet and damp paint for background. When dry a white gel pen was used to put in design marks on the gnome's hat. This is for a weekend drawing event on WetCanvas! online. COPYRIGHT 2023 Kay Smith

So cute and fun to see. The red sings and nice background.
