Sea Glass Gnome and Mushrooms by Mark Hanson • 5 x 7 inch canvas
Some pieces feel like they hold a little doorway into the old stories. This one brings together mushrooms, driftwood, and a small gnome beneath the sun, creating a scene that could belong to the hidden world of the forest.
Gnomes have long been seen as guardians of the earth, keepers of roots, soil, and stone. Mushrooms remind us of cycles, renewal, and the unseen networks that connect life. Together they carry the feeling of protection, mystery, and the quiet magic that moves through the natural world.
