The Mischief of Pepe Gnomes

This painting was done from life! During my travels in Georgia, I found a place that seemed like it could belong to fairy folk. As soon as I finished the landscape, the little rascals wasted no time — they took over the canvas and settled right into my painting! It might not be a masterpiece, but to me, it feels so charming and full of life, I can’t help but smile every time I see it!
