Description Haha, another "Telperion & Laurelin" piece since I simply love these two trees. No, really, this is a logo design for a huge design project I'm working on in school.

I had a blast "weaving" together the branches and roots. It was fun on Illustrator rearranging the pieces so that they overlap in JUST the right places . I will be selling this design on t-shirts and other apparel in my Etsy store soon and will even have "just married" matching tees since I am calling this design "Deep Rooted Love" (and simply nicknamed the "Wedding Trees" since this would make a great wedding motif!)

Note for anyone: You many not use this image for any reason, private or commercial, without prior permission. This is my original design. It is loosely based on a few concepts of Celtic knot Tree of Life motifs as well as some Peter Jackson "Elven" designs worked in.

This truly is more of an original artwork rather than just a fanart of JRR Tolkien's "The Silmarillion" trees of Valinor. I designed this puppy from scratch by sketching it on a huge piece of paper and then bringing it into Illustrator to trace over by hand since LiveTrace is derpy as usual :/.

I will be soon selling t-shirts and possibly totebags with this design in my Etsy store. I plan to even offer "just married" tees with this design on it! Note me if you are interested in a custom printed tee of this design

NOTE: The printed tees will be true works of art by themselves since they will be using the traditional, arduous silkscreening process and not a digital screenprinting process. I painstakingly fill in the screens myself (with wonderful helpf from my buddy, ) and then print the shirts myself. I can also offer the option for artisan tie-dyeing and/or added Swarovski crystal jewels.

Hello. I'm interest in a poster size print, 3 foot by 2 foot, for our living room. Is this image available for sale digitally or as a print? Thank you! Aaron - 8817881@gmail.com.

Hi firstly I am also trying to message you directly. I am in love with this art work, and I am president of a Tolkien Appreciation Society at a Welsh University (Swansea if you care). We've been trying to design a logo for a few months, and I found your image. We would love to use it as part of our logo. Are you happy to do that, it's totally a non-profit organisation, it's all about enjoyment and like minded people watching the movies and discussing the books.

I don't want to steal your work in anyway at all. I can show you the logo design we have right now if you want to approve the usage too.

I see that you can get this printed on mugs, etc., but I would love a print of it to frame. Β Is that possible? Β Thanks!

I can send you a formal invoice through paypal. When you pay thru paypal, that will have the documentation you need. But besides that, if you pay, I know it and won't give you a hard time since I GREATLY appreciate you being honest and not using my design without permission.

Thanks so much!

Okay great! I messaged you in Etsy asking for your t-shirt size, type, color, and what tree colors you want. Please send that info through Etsy's messaging system and not here on dA. DA loses things quickly. Thanks so much!
