Gnomework

A jaunt through the redwoods and soon after I arrived in Washington, my sister in law and I started gardening. I had a silly vision of lining their yard with gnomes, a prank, I mused. I decided I would start with one. We went to Gnome Goods and I gleefully acquired our new garden fixture. I showed my mom the yard statue, and my sister-in-law side-eyed her and chimed in, “She doesn’t even know about me and the gnomes.” Unbeknownst to me, she’s totally into gnomes and she shared they decorated their entire christmas tree with gnomes last year. So gnome energy does resides there, and I felt it! 

Calling in gnomes and playing with the energy of their archetype helped our garden grow.

And this isn’t just about fantasy, it’s about neuroplasticity, healing, and the soul’s language.

Believing in gnomes isn’t just cute, it’s powerful.

Here’s why:

Magic opens the mind to mystery, synchronicity, and curiosity and breaks linear thinking.

This unlocks deeper creativity and softens the rigid grip of logic, making space for more joy.

The ego stops narrating alone when you believe in co-creation with guides, archetypes, or gnomes.

Belief patterns the future and tells the brain that new outcomes are possible, even in the soil, even in the self. Believing these gnomes were helping me in the garden took some of the pressure off me to get it all right my first time around. They also help tend to the garden, of course, and share in the work.

Symbols become language. Gnomes, like dreams, give the psyche a way to speak, reorganize, and feel safe. So if we want to believe these little gnomes are helping us garden, we are also helping our soul bloom… 

Premium 16x20 Gallery Wrapped Canvas

You will receive a 1.5 inch deep, gallery-wrapped & wired lyve canvas, museum-quality archival canvas that brings out the depth, vibrancy, and detail of my work  produced as a bespoke collector’s piece. The canvas will be finished with hand-painted custom edges, extending the vision beyond the print and making the piece uniquely yours.  Perfect for hanging in your home, studio, or sacred space, it arrives ready to display with no framing required.

To me, the edge is where the image refuses to stop at the border. It asks us to look beyond what is immediately visible and to consider what exists just outside our field of view.

Painting the edges is my way of reminding us that expansion happens when we move past the frame, past the limits of what we think we know. The edges reflect our own process of meeting ourselves beyond comfort zones, in the places where growth, change, and possibility live.

Every time you see the continuation of color wrapping around the canvas, I invite you to remember that there is always more. More depth, more perspective, more magic of you waiting to be discovered.

Please note: each order is printed and shipped to me first so I can complete the custom edge painting before sending it on to you. Mentally allow for additional processing and shipping time to honor this process. Feel free to reach out to me if you would like an estimate on my timing, otherwise the invitation is to be patient.

I appreciate you.
