Description All that is gold does not glitter
Not all those who wander are lost
The old that is strong does not wither
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken
A light from the shadows shall spring
Renewed shall be blade that was broken
And the crownless again shall be king.

Hopefully this speaks for itself.

(And hey, I finally got around to doing some serious art for my all time favorite movies. Go me.)

I think my older primative portraits are going to need a lot of rework, when I see this gallery. Probably better to start afresh, or back to wildlife.

QueenOfCostumes [2012-03-26 18:58:51 +0000 UTC]

it really takes full view to appreciate all the different colours you have within that very warm light tone. Theres a really nice flow to the curves of the face that you've created through the brushstrokes. A lovely work of traditional art!

The colors in the background and on the shadowing of his face truly do add much to this piece. I find it exquisite!! Aragorn (or more specifically Viggo) is a picture of male perfection
