Sunday Gnomedays

Happy Sunday Gnomedays again ❤

It’s been an emotional roller-coaster kind of weekend. Anyone else feeling that? …..that said, I found this cathartically lovely. Hope you do, too.

 

Sketch – Blessed Midsummer (Orcish)

 

A little bit late since the sun has already set here, BUT anyway, Blessed Midsummer/Litha/Summer Solstice everyone!

~ May the longtime sun shine upon you
All love surround you
And the pure, pure light that’s within you
Guide your way home ~~~

 

Father’s Day Gifts, 2017

As it says ❤

“Guardian of the Road,” for my Dad.

“Branch Haven,” for my father-in-law (he who makes all the lovely woodworking for my wife’s shop, btw – lladyllama.com/ ).

Again, happy day to anyone celebrating it!

Happy Sunday Gnomedays again, everyone ❤

Having fun with loose colored pencil drawings lately, apparently. Also, dude Gnome this time in honor of Father’s Day. Still remarkably feminine, but yes. Dude. Happy Day to any fathers celebrating out there!

 

Announcing “Color Me Fae,” a whimsical Faerie coloring book!

Ta da ta da, as of right now my first coloring book is available for purchase!!! Containing a total of 17 coloring images, featuring Gnomes, Orcs, badger-folk, Elven goddesses, a unique mermaid and other nature spirits.

Sunday Gnomedays 6-11-17

Time again 🙂 This time, in honor of a lovely friend of mine who is moving forward into more and more amazingness (which this time, means she is actually physically moving).

Helen, may I always be that crazy Gnome lady you know, and may YOU always follow your dreams and your heart.

(And everybody send her good vibes!)

 

New Llady Llama llogos (and go visit them at CNY Fiber fest!)

As it says on the tin 😀 My amazing, wonderful Llady wife, of Llady Llama Fiber Co., recently commissioned me to update one logo and create another new one for two sections of her shop!

Llady Llama Woodwork llogo, ver. 2

 

As you can see from the old design, some of the sections have been updated – The top now features a different featured product of their own design (my Llove’s and my father-in-law’s, as he creates all the woodwork items and they work together on ideas), called a Niddy Nøsty (Nøstepinne, Travel Niddy Noddy and Wrap Per Inch Gauge all together!). Instead of needles with the drop spindle in the middle, we decided to include a shawl pin instead.

The circles and linework on both new additions indicate sections of gemstones that he inlays into the wood (many types of gems are featured on nearly all their woodwork products, and the wood is as locally milled as possible).

And of course, the bottom section still features her llogo llama, Elli!

Llady Llama Llexical pouch llogo

 

As she describes:

“Our Llexical tetrahedron notions pouch is perfect for storing your most-used crafting notions! Just the size to pop in your Layover Project Tote. This pouch is large enough to accommodate up to 6“ scissors, your stitch markers, darning needle, a folded pattern and/or other small crafting notions. A full 100g skein of sock yarn and 6″ DPNs do fit snugly. Also good for other small on-the-go projects like amigirumi with some of our Llop-Off DPNs or another mini skein project.”

Her shop is currently on vacation mode for a festival this weekend, but you can see a selection of her items that have already sold here.

And if you’re in the Central New York State area, please go visit them at the Central New York Fiber Fest in Bouckville, NY! Open today and tomorrow, June 10th and 11th, from 10am to 5pm. More info here ❤
