Description
"And as they watched, upon the mound there came forth two slender shoots; and silence was over all the world in that hour, nor was there any other sound save the chanting of Yavanna.
Under her song the saplings grew and became fair and tall, and came to flower; and thus there awoke in the world the Two Trees of Valinor."
-- The Silmarillion --

At last...
After over three years without realising any vector pictures, I'm back with this one. It was in pending mode in my files and decided I'd finished it cause it's one of my favorite chapter written by Tolkien.

I hope you'll like it, it has a lot of details and i know you can't see a lot here, so I'll do a closeup pic in the week, you'll be able to see how much I was crazy in this pic !

The next one in the serie of Valar will be Vaire.
