i'm just happy to find someone who can render elves and the other LOTR characters so beautifully, without just copying ideas from the movies. Have you done any of Arwen? I recall one of Luthien who was very Liv Tyler-esque. Have you read the Silmarillion or the new Children of Hurin? i love the character of Aredhel, and the character of Nienor.

Thanks for the kind words, if I rewatched the movies it would probably spark the urge to paint some more. I never painted lIv Tyler but in a cheeky way I painted her semblance. Yes, the Luthies one.
I have actually painted Nienoer before the children of Hurin was released! Have you seen her in my gallery. I read the book, but it took a long time until I began to really like the story.

oh yeah actually i think i recall nienor now - sorry, i'm suffering from insomnia at the moment and my memory's a sieve. Hmm, yes Tolkien's books take some work to get absorbed with LOL mostly cos of the language i guess........but it was such a sad beautiful story, about Turin and his sister

oh my... why didn't i see tihs one in your gallery before... I love it. even though you may have used Miranda Otto on a pic as reference this is more like the Eowyn like I imagines her than the movie Eowyn, it must be the eyes. magnificent work ^^

Run now or you'll be Thanks for finding it and commenting. Once more you really felt similarly about the piece as I do. I even exhibited it in May and even people who have never seen LOTR liked it :-D

i don't run It's a powerful piece with a lot of emotion in it. I think that the fact that those people like it as well tells you it's a very good piece. I think it's one of your best ^^

Thanks, I'm also almost happy with it. However, I'd be more happy if I can improve so that in another year there will be many more, much better works in this gallery.

well if you practice a lot you will get better eventually and you are getting better i think. with the backgrounds and those killing borders you did on your Glorfindel piece. You must have a lot of patience.

Just twins once more, it is a part of an art trade. the most intimate thing is one's hand on the hip of the other.

SuseDolAmroth In reply to Eltharion [2004-07-30 06:43:03 +0000 UTC]

I had strated the art trade with hher and asked which elf she'd like the answer was. Whatever - I like all your elves :-D So I thought I should at least give her a choice... Glorfindel (The one I just posted was a scetch at the time) or the twins. She opted for the twins. the at is simple but i think the effect is quite nice. i really went be the book(s) who claim that the twins were remarkably alike in stature and looks.
