From the Silmarillion, Tinuviel dancing....

This was an illustration for Cicada magazine when they reprinted Tolkien's poem about Tinuviel.

Medium: Pencil
Size: 9x12 inches

How do you get pencilwork to SHINE? Nevermind, I'm not an artist, it won't do any good to actually tell me (unless you've got some magic potion/chant/spell that can make me a competent illustrator in a short time.

This is a beautiful picture. Kind of a more classical approach to Luthien, but a gorgeous and intriguing one. The pencil grays add a darker, more mystical quality to their story. Although, she looks like a blonde here instead of the brunette Tolkien describes her as. That's a technical thing, though, and doesn't detract from the beauty of the picture.

Is that the aurora in the back? How do you get that effect just with pencils? You are very talented

wow...the silmarillion is one of my favorite books and although it’s not as I have imagined the scene, it’s vibrant and stunningly beautiful ;]

Just one question, how long did this take you?

I saw this in Cicada when it came out and loved the artwork. Good job!

I have a component of one of your pictures tattooed on me, they are gorgeous!

Wonderfully graceful. Tolken would have been most proud... I can just imagine how even more exquised Tolken’s works would have been, if you had been illustrating all his master pieces for him, with all your own magical art creations! RMT
