I was inspired by garden gnomes to do a line of fantasy figures for the giftware industry in the early nineties.

That led to similar projects such as this one:

This Santa is made of a polyform clay. The figure would stand about 5 inches tall standing. This was part of a project done with Figi Graphics sometime in the early 1990s.

In the finished model Santa is sculpting a model train on a mountainous terrain.

What a revelation to learn about my own two garden gnomes' (here on the opposite side of the Atlantic) not so humble beginnings. I'll have to tell them that they trace their ancestry back to the illustrious "Lampy" of the Lamport Hall Gardens (but perhaps they already know!)
