SF&F Picture 8 out of 28 by Hanna Lehmusto.

SciFi and Fantasy Art: Goldberry

'Quickly he returned, bearing a large and laden tray. Then Tom ang Goldberry set the table; and the hobbits sat in wonder and half in laughter: so fair was the grace of Goldberry and so merry and odd the caperings of Tom.'
(Fellowship of the Ring)

A drawing I did for the 2004 calendar of Finnish Tolkien Society. The subject was something like 'Middle-Earth uncut', ie. characters and events that are or will be missing from the movies. So this one is desperately trying to be Goldberry, in her own house. Made with ink in march-april 2003.

16 Dec 2004	Penguins Moo	Loading... Goldberry! I remember reading about her, and Tom(Of course Tom's the best!) I'm so mad that they took that part out of the movie :/
9 May 2005	Merituuli	Loading... A Happy picture.Once a character who does smiles. Hih!
12 Nov 2005	Carrie R. Rains	Loading... Such a cozy looking picture! I can almost feel the warm glow of the fire and the yummy smell of dinner being served.
17 Jun 2006	Heidi	Loading... Hurray for Goldberry! She and Bombadil are always being ignored in fan art. I've only seen one picture of Bombadil and that was a professional calendar. Great piece. You've really caught the essence of the scene.
11 Jul 2008	Lissandra	Loading... I love how warm and welcoming you made her! Yet there’s also this graceful poise about that shows her nobility. Now you just need to do a Tom picture to complete her!
