Why Gnomes you ask?!

Author's Background:
            So you're probably thinking, "Why in the world would someone make a blog on gnomes?!" My name is Christine Mathewson and I have an obsession with gnomes. My love for these tiny guys (and girls) started three years ago in my senior year of high school. I was taking an advertising art class, and we had to come up with type of business and create a theme for the business cards, flyers and other advertising art for the business. I had created a little cafe, with a spring garden theme and of course there were some garden gnomes. I'm a horrible artist, I can't draw anything. After that class, the one and only thing that I could draw that you can tell what it is, is a gnome.  And I just like to draw them, it's fun. Ever since I've kept my eyes open for them. I plan to one day have a gnome garden myself. 
In the class we had a book all about gnomes, that I first used to help me draw them. Going thew that book helped me to get to know about them and like the even more. 

What's in store:

          Above is why I chose to do my blog on Gnomes, but what bout them?  I plan to post all sorts of information on these little human like creatures. Their history, what kinds there are, how to take care of them, how to protect yourself against a gnome attack, and many other topics.  Let me know if there's anything you want me to cover, and I'll try my best to getting around on posting on the subject.  I'll update each post if I find more information on the topic, so  keep checking back for updates!

  1. So I hope you don't think I'm too crazy, I'm not REALLY doing this blog for fun. I'm doing this for my Intro Writing Electronic Media class, EGL 311 at SUNY Farmingdale. All the assignment is, is to create a blog about anything, and update it at least every week or so. And for those of you who actually know me, you know it would have been cats, or gnomes. But thanks for reading! =D
