It's time once again for posting something with a little bit of red or a lot of red. Last week our hostess Mary of Work of The Poet suggested we try macros with red. I have chosen to post a couple of macro shots of the gnomes from one of my Tom Clark figurines. I have collected these figurines for many years.Dr. Thomas F. Clark is the lead artist for Cairn Studio, LTD. Dr. Clark is a prolific and talented sculptor in the figurine industry and is a native of North Carolina where his studio is located. Each of his creations is a limited edition.
Isn't this a friendly face!
The Figurine
"Dr. Clark imbues every creation with his personal philosophy that "the universe is basically friendly". His Gnomes and Woodspirits "show a dignity that comes from a life of worth", and he feels that his creations are successful if they make you smile!"I hope these little faces have made you smile today.
For more friendly happenings please click the badge at the top of my post to join Mary and the other participants joining in Ruby Tuesday.

Mine is here. Good morning!
The gnomes are so sweet-looking, Carletta! Yes I think anything goes next week...for Ruby Tuesday! :)
They are wonderful! I have thought about you off and on all day--hope you feel better. My oldest daughter used to suffer with migraines and I know they are no fun.
Those sweet figures certainly did make me smile today.

There is wonderful character designed into those smiling Santas. Who couldn't grin at these guys?

Yes, I'm smiling. Great post and photos.
Those wonderfully sculpted people have faces full of joy! I would love to populate my home with them!
What happy little faces. I love them!
Amusing little men!
They are so vivid, I might like to talk with them. The wonderful smile and the wise look in their eyes.
The contrast to the well molded, but very stiff wooden horse and these super lively little men was stunning.

Excellant post Carletta. I have an extensive collection of TC gnomes, and I love them. I have one in my blogger picture in my profile, and I've done posts on them before.
Happy RT.
