A pencil drawing of a plus size, feminine-presenting gnome standing back to back and arms linked with a Devil’s Cigar mushroom-person, lines of curving energy streaming from both their eyes and all around them, accented with small spore-like spheres.

A pencil drawing of two gnomes, one thin and masculine-presenting, one plump and feminine-presenting, both in Victorian-style swimwear.

A pencil drawing mimicking a postage stamp with a processing stamp over it in the bottom right, depicting two regal-looking gnomes – via the crowns at the bases of their pointed caps.

A pencil drawing of a plus-size, feminine-presenting, gaslamp-fantasy-styled gnome standing in confused wonder before a cow, whose hide is uniformly toned except for a darker nose and ears, which are smaller than they should be. Her feet are also turned backwards, and curving lines and small spheres coming off of her back indicate a flow of energy. She looks down at the gnome in calm neutrality.

A pencil drawing of a plump, feminine-presenting, gaslamp fantasy styled gnome standing amidst swirls of magic, two sprites swooping around her pointed cap as four hands reach out to her from off screen, their clothing and markings like scars and certain shading indicating they’re all from other different fantasy cultures. She looks cautiously pleased, almost hopeful, not noticing that faerie wings are beginning to sprout from her back.

A pencil drawing of a plus size, masculine-presenting gnome standing in underclothes at a table with two bowls and various vintage shaving tools before him, holding up a small rectangular mirror and inspecting the half of his face that he’s partially shaved off into a mutton chop style, the other hand gathering the other half of his remaining full, long beard to the side. He looks calmly pleased, A hung curtain fills the space in the background.

#gnome #gnomes #faerie #gaslampfantasy #nature #sunlight #magic #fantasyart #fairyart #bodypositiveart #indiecomics #queercomics
A pencil drawing of a plump, feminine-presenting gnome happening upon a stone formation that looks an awful lot like a frozen or transformed creature, that is – a Troll, its posture leaning up toward rays of sunlight, its head tilted up as if leaning into that warmth. Moss and other foliage on and around it imply that its been there for some time, and the gnome looks stricken, obviously assuming that it having been frozen is a bad thing. She is packed and dressed for travel, her skirt ending at her calves, a full pack and sleeping roll at her back.

A pencil drawing of a plus-size, gaslamp fantasy styled, masculine-presenting gnome standing and holding some small, bundled items to his chest, his expression nervous.

A pencil drawing of a vaguely feminine-presenting, plus-size, gaslamp-fantasy styled gnome standing facing the viewer, a pack on their back and both hands on the straps, and an umbrella at the top of their pointed gnomish cap. This protects them from a single drop of rain, to which they seem very calmly pleased. A prompt list reading “Gnomevember 2025, prompt list by @ kristileighgillustration” and “(Folktale Week)”, above two columns of daily prompts. In the background, a masculine-presenting gnome and a slug peek out from a cluster of tall mushrooms, the illustration lowered in saturation as to not stand out too much against the text.

A pencil drawing of a plump, gaslamp-fantasy-styled, feminine-presenting gnome drawn in work clothes from the hips up. She holds a diveted stone to her chest, looking concerned as the shape of two very similar-looking other gnomes, both feminine-presenting and crowned, echo off her own form, one of them crying, one of them smiling. The space around all three of them is accented by several small floating spheres. A prompt list reading “Gnomevember 2025, prompt list by @ kristileighgillustration” and “(Folktale Week)”, above two columns of daily prompts.

A pencil drawing, inverted so the linework is white on a black background, of a feminine-presenting gnome, sleeping calmly. Swirling, spiraling lines float up from her with several small spheres, all reaching toward and framing a single seven-pointed Faerie star at the top center of the image. A prompt list reading “Gnomevember 2025, prompt list by @ kristileighgillustration” and “(Folktale Week)”, above two columns of daily prompts. In the background, a masculine-presenting gnome and a slug peek out from a cluster of tall mushrooms, the illustration lowered in saturation as to not stand out too much against the text. The George Costanza soup mode meme, with the word “Gnome” replacing “soup,” so it reads as if George is saying “I gotta focus. I’m shifting into GNOME mode.”

A pencil drawing of a plus-size, feminine-presenting orc drawn full body, standing facing the viewer and holding her hands out in shock as magic manifests from them both. Three vaguely-defined sprite-like faeries float around and above her, while a seven-pointed Faerie star rises above her head.
