Whimsical gnomes with red and white striped hats and beards cluster across a dark charcoal background surrounded by evergreen branches, snowflakes, and candy canes in red and gold. The repeating pattern creates a festive, playful holiday mood with a modern folk-art sensibility, rendered in a flat illustration style with warm seasonal colors against the cool dark ground. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
