Elf and lantern
In honour of the darkest day of the year, here's a little lantern-carrying elf
Been kind of busy with Christmas preparations, but hope I'll be able to wind down soon and have some time for more art! And yeah, btw... Tempering chocolate is hecking difficult and I have been questioning my life choices over the past few days

This reminds me of the Swedish (Nordic?) “tomte” which translates to both gnome and Santa. They where believed to help take care of the farms and you find them very often in Swedish Christmas decorations. Their gray beard is also a reason why grey feels like a really Christmasy color for me! And I love your work!

Beautiful! My fav part is how your cakes on snow shapes have a very round and glossy feel to them- I want to touch them (°▽°)
