Sleepy Gnome in a Walnut Boat

A tiny gnome snoozes in a walnut shell boat. His tall hat droops softly while his mustache curls like a smile. He hugs his little fishing rod with both hands, boots tucked in and eyes gently shut. Today he might catch a nap instead of a fish as the boat bobbles on smooth ripples.

A lantern dangles from the rod, its small flame shaped like a teardrop, ready to glow. The walnut shell shows bumpy grooves, sturdy and round like a snug cradle. His round cheeks rest calm, and pointy ears peek from under the hat. The quiet pond carries him along, slow and steady.

Fun Fact!

The cartoon "David the Gnome" also depicted gnomes' main enemies as trolls, large and dim-witted creatures.

Coloring Tips

  1. 1 Blend two browns on the shell so the grooves look deep and woodsy.
  2. 2 Make a soft yellow halo around the lantern to show a warm glow.
  3. 3 Use light and dark blues to ripple the water around the boat.
  4. 4 Give his tall hat stripes or tiny polka dots for extra whimsy.
