Art Journal: Gnome-Vember

Welcome to Gnome-Vember!

I’m starting a new mini art journal! This time, it is about Autumn, Gnomes and the month of November.

The weather is getting colder, the plants and trees are shedding their leaves, and the garden is fading away, soon to be buried in snow. All of those wonderful garden ornaments have been forgotten and left to fend for themselves until spring!

Instead of working in a micro Traveler’s Notebook insert, for this volume, I’ve made a little, self-contained book. The paper inside is Aquabee, Super Deluxe Sketch book from the Bee Paper Company . The closed book measures 2" high by 1-1/4" wide.

I plan to add more collage and found items to this book, starting with the added leaves in this spread. The leaf on the left came in a package from Hobby Lobby. There are several small leaves, of various fall colors in each package. I added more water color to it and drew the lines with a brown, Pigma Micron. The tiny leaves on the right were done with a paper punch, printed scrapbook paper and then added fine line marker.

I hope the things in the garden can’t see into the studo… I better keep the window shuttered!
