Gnome Homes are minitaure houses, combining
traditions of Spirit Houses and the mythology of gnomes. From 1994 to 2009, I built and sold over 600 Gnome Homes, and
conducted hundreds of workshops, teaching thousands of people of all ages how to build their own Gnome Homes.
Since I've always had a good eye for composition, it was natural for me to photograph my own work and post it on my website.
In 1996, Gnome Homes were featured on Made In Maine (MPBS) and were on display at the Blaine House,
the Maine State Governor's Mansion. In 2008, my creations were included in a new book by C.S. Lambert, entitled
"A Passion For Seaglass."
The author and a very gifted photographer, Amy Wilton, spent a day at my studio and
as I watched Amy's photographic creativity, I had a sudden desire to use a camera to see the world in a new way. Last
year, I began selling my photographic work and have been on that path ever since.
So, 3-dimensional
Gnome Homes are no longer available from me, but they are available in 2-dimensional form, along with other images that will
be constantly updated on this site. Have a look!
I am using my gnome-home.com
web site to post my photography because when you do a Google search on either gnome homes or my full name in quotes, this
site appears in several places in the first three pages of search results. You can appreciate the visibility this offers.
In my portfolio, I have included photos of some of the Gnome Homes I built, along with new images
of wildlife, nature, artifacts and architecture. I especially love water and the golden hours of sunrise and sunset.
On the home page, click on "Portfolio" to look at images of Gnome Homes.
If you click on my Portfolio of Professional Photography, you'll see additional images
I'm offering for sale at this time, with more to be added periodically. You can also click through to see my work in
a Picassa album. This is a fun and exciting new venture for me and has resulted in some paid work! See what you
think.
