Wood nymphs?

Are you familiar with wood nymphs?  Some call them gnomes.  If you are not familiar with either of these terms, then you need to stop by Cow Palace, as I have just received quite a nice selection of these magical characters!

Tom Clark, the artist who created these whimsical creatures, hales from North Carolina.  Crushed pecan shells, wood chips, resin, imagination and artistic talent are the ingredients used to create these fabulous creatures.  The detail in each is unbelievable!  Each gnome is signed by the artist, numbered and has it's name engraved on the figurine, as well as the year it was created.

Acorns, apples, leaves, even a random coin are just a few of the elements that make up these delightful creations!  Come by for a closer look.  You'll be enchanted, I promise.
