From The Lord of the Rings comes Arwen, beautiful, captivating daughter of Elrond. This is NOT taken from the film, rather, my interpretation of the literary character. Pencils of varying hardness.

Quite amazing. Still haven't finished LOTR yet but maybe I'll pick it up again (one day in the far future no doubt)
This is a brilliant pic though, absolutely love the shading darling, oh yaaarrrrs! (flicks hand in somewhat homosexual/camp manner) No seriously, it's brilliant. I cna't draw women to save my life, no relaly, ask me to draw a woman or be shot in the head, I'm a dead man.
Maybe I'll just trace your pictures...
Thanx for commenting on my gallery by the way!!!!!!!!!!!! However long ago it was.

A-Dam

:-) Maya R. Hirschman replies: "Thank you very much, A-Dam. It helps to draw women when one is already a woman. So, presumably, it works the other way for men. I know it took me a long time to become comfortable drawing men, so there's hope for you yet. 12"

Because Maya ROCKS!!!!! Hey hon. Once again, never cease to amaze; shading is spectacular, and I love the teeth, and the ear placement. A definitely well placed huzzah. 2

:-) Maya R. Hirschman replies: "Thanks, Ali. I'm going to be exhibiting this and three other pieces at the Gathering of the Fellowship here in TO in December."

this is great pic... i came across it on the tour.... but it doesnt't really depict what Arwen looks like... for one the movie makers people thingy majigers picked out the perfect person for their role.... liv tyler really is a perfect arwen

:-) Maya R. Hirschman replies: "Well, that's your opinion. Since this wasn't based on the film version, rather my own interpretation upon reading the books, I win."

*cough* Hope you don't mind I put you on my tour...and I still love this piece!

:-) Maya R. Hirschman replies: "I saw that. Thanks. Did you check out the other new LotR piece in here?"

Wow! This is amazing! I like this version of her! Very pretty! And sad looking. Poor Arwen...

:-) Maya R. Hirschman replies: "THanks very much, Kelly. I appreciate the comment. "

Wooooooowwwwwwwwwww! Thank you lord for giving people the gift of drawing. Dude, this rocks! Totally! She's even more beautiful than Tolkien wrote her. The hair, the necklace, the dress.... OH MY GOD!

:-) Maya R. Hirschman replies: "Thanks for your enthusiastic comment ! I am always thankful for being given the ability to draw - now if I could just make some money doing it... 2"

She does look like shes thinking about aragorn...I love the windswept look of her hair and of course the expression...Just lovely...I really like her necklace, its a lot better than the one in the movies...

:-) Maya R. Hirschman replies: "I've always kind of thought her necklace was sucky, but thanks ! My focus was her face, not her ornamentation, but I'm glad you like it."

I like her teeth.
