Tolkien Artwork

[Lithóniel]

This isn’t Tolkien artwork, but it’s a picture I drew/painted and I thought it would be cool to show you guys

(Btw I put a crown on because I thought it looked empty without it)

It's beautiful! You're good at drawing.

Why thank you 😊

I know the current topic is Faramir and Eowyn, but I just found this piece of art of Goldberry, and I love it too much not to share.

Wait -- did I miss the part with the unicorns? 🤔

So, the seas turn purple/indigo by the time you get to Valinor?

Wow.

 

[Squint-eyed Southerner]

Probably meant to convey Twilight.

I like it.

 

[Lómelindë Lindórië]

What of this one then?

 

[Squint-eyed Southerner]

Even better! 🙂

 

[Lómelindë Lindórië]

Even better! 🙂

Just that it doesn't come on high enough resolution when I try to use it for my profile banner.

Does cosplay count as 'art'?

Why not?
Cosplay counts as the "most expensive fantasy series of all time" these days, too. 😸

So, the seas turn purple/indigo by the time you get to Valinor?

Wow.

Long ago, before I read The Silmarillion, I once had a dream in which I saw a similar image of a rapturous, beautiful city on a distant coast, inaccessible to humans. I think it was Alqualonde. And although there was, of course, a large harbor, the city had grown up a hill that faced a huge mountain range.

Too bad, I had a dream about the Valar. Specifically, I remember 7 of the Aratar. I beat you there; what say you?

If that also happened before you started reading, then I find your seer-like abilities very admirable. 👍

I have to thank you for that one, hailing me as a seer. Intriguing, isn't it? No wonder you're drawn to me. Too bad, we're not on the same side.

 

[Annatar]

Too bad, we're not on the same side.

This is exactly what makes attraction irresistible. Unfortunately, the end is almost always very dramatic and sad. Might we be an exception?

Of what exactly do you seek from me?

 

[Annatar]

Well, you seem to me to be a good mediator between Melkor and me on one side and the Valar on the other. In any case, we don't want war and we always strive for a peaceful solution. Perhaps you could become the decisive ambassador so that Arda does not sink into chaos in the future?
Apart from that, of course, I appreciate your cheerful disposition and graceful figure, which make me a little more optimistic from time to time and give me a break from the all too bad things in this world.

You remind me of a beautiful elf I once knew a long time ago:

Have I not always been one? Yet I walk the world unseen by most.

Námo hailed me by this title, when the two of us first met, when I henceforth become his Maia:

You remind me of a beautiful elf I once knew a long time ago

And who was that? How did she fare with you?

 

[Annatar]

And who was that? How did she fare with you?

I thought you loved secrets. Well, this is one.

 

[Lómelindë Lindórië]

I thought you loved secrets. Well, this is one.

Perhaps, I may infer that it did not go well?

 

[Annatar]

Things went very well for a while... But it turned out that in the end she was only interested in the Silmarilli.
