Yesterday I truly realized that a lot of my artistic inspiration comes from subconscious observations.
My awesome little gnome brought all of this about. I was watching some DVR recordings of The Big Bang Theory. During The Friendship Algorithm Episode I began to draw the little guy. I don't have a particular fascination with gnomes, in fact this is the first rendering I've ever done of a gnome. Though happy little fantasy characters are not far from my wheelhouse so I didn't think much of it.
Later when my husband was watching the same episode I noticed a book in the background (of a bookstore scene no less) with the front and back views of a gnome that look suspiciously like my gnome. I had begun drawing after that scene.
It is incredibly indicative of me to notice what is in the background rather than the subject matter at hand.
It truly is a great breakthrough for me. A forward momentum with my art. A realization that I may need to let inspiration come to me. Trust myself.

Can you find the gnome book? Bazinga. |
