Welcome
From 1995 though 2013, Dennis Sheehy made over 600 unique Gnome Homes that were sold to customers far and wide. They will not be made in the future.
They were made from specially selected driftwood, sea glass, and weathered wood, to create playful, one-of-a-kind artwork to be beautifully displayed on a wall, table or in the garden. They included playful elements such as swings, seesaws, bird houses, furniture, outhouses, lighting and mirrors.
Dennis has moved on to another creative pursuit, that of photography. If you'd like to see a sample of his work, go to Flickr and search on his name or follow this link: http://www.flickr.com/photos/beautiful-images/

About the Artist
During a visit with his children to Monhegan Island in 1994, Dennis observed little houses made from natural materials found on the forest floor of Cathedral Woods. Made by visitors to the island, they had a certain whimsy that piqued Dennis's creative impulse and later, he began making little houses with his children. Wood, stones, shells and other objects found at the beach provided the materials. His daughter called them gnome homes and the title stuck.
