Description '...their sister was Aredhel the White. She was younger in the years of the Eldar than her brothers;and when she was grown to full stature and beauty she was tall and strong, and loved much to ride and hunt in the forests. There she was often in the company of the sons of Feanor, her kin; but to none was her heart's love given. Ar-Feiniel she was called, The White Lady of Noldor, for she was pale, though her hair was dark, and she was never arrayed but in silver and white.' -Tolkien, The Silmarillion. I chose to draw her because you always see pictures of Luthien, but never Aredhel. And i think that her story is a tragic one, so this is my tribute to this brave character.

This is actaully a little old picture I did a while ago.......I dunno why I never put it up b4. *shrugs*

Wow.. That's beautiful! I've gotta admit... I'm a pretty pathetic LOTR fan. Mostly a fan of the movies. I tried reading the books a few years ago... but me, being dense, didn't understand half of what I was reading and stopped midway through the Council of Elrond when they were telling some story about dwarves...I think.
I decided to try it again this summer...This time, I won't go a week without reading and forget everthing I've read.
