Description "He was tall as a young tree, lithe, immensely strong, able swiftly to draw a great war-bow and shoot down a Nazgûl, endowed with the tremendous vitality of Elvish bodies, so hard and resistant to hurt that he went only in light shoes over rock or through snow, the most tireless of all the Fellowship." - Tolkien

This portrait of Legolas Greenleaf, son of Thranduil of Mirkwood, captures his princely grace and immortal beauty. 

The drawing is executed in pencil on A4, acid-free paper, and is safely sprayed with fixative to protect it for many years to come.

"Long are the waves on the Last Shore falling,
Sweet are the voices in the Lost Isle calling,
In Eressea, in Elvenhome that no man can discover,
Where the leaves fall not: land of my people forever!"

The swirls are cool. Do you mind if I use those designs in my calligraphy?

Thank you! Yes, they are inspired by the swirling elven designs that are on his costume and bow.
