'But in the morning, as Faramir came from the Houses, he saw her, as she stood upon the walls; and she was clad all in white, and gleamed in the sun. And he called to her, and she came down, and they walked on the grass or sat under a green tree together, now in silence, now in speech. And each day after they did likewise.'

JRR Tolkien: The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King: Book VI, Chapter 5: The Steward and the King

Hmm i think the body's are too long. I like the background though =)You're right, there are anatomical problems due to the fact that this is one of my earlier paintings. Nonetheless, thank you.

I love it. Such emotion. Such life. Sorry. I cannot help but continually comment on your art!It's not a problem. I thank you for doing so.

Wow, I really like this, so much that I don't really care about the anatomy and so on. That has to be the best Lady Éowyn I've seen in the woods. ^_^That's high praise indeed, thank you very much.

Mwuah!!! I must love this, actually i love all of your drawings :/ i also LOVE lord of the rings, (Not because all of the characters are good looking, meaow) the houses of healing are one of my favourite scenes, especially Eowyn and Faramir *sqee* it kept reading the chapter over until it drove everyone mad because i quoted it to much :/ then i read the scouring of the shire 45372 times, :/. im not obsessed.... Keep drawing of suffer!!!! I promise to keep drawing! This is one of my favourite chapters also.

I Absolutely love all of your pictures! Absolutely and everyone of them. XJ. I think they are my fav's in elfwood.. Wow, that's certainly a compliment that I don't take lightly. Thanks very much!

I love all of your work, but this piece surpasses them all! It's fantstic, especially (as others have mentioned) the classical feeling. As an art student, I absolutely love to see people use differing art styles and you've done a fabulous job with this one.Thank you very much indeed. Even though I'm a little annoyed with the anatomy in hindsight, there's something about this piece that I really love even after all these years (it was painted in early 2002). It's great you like it as well.

aww.. that's so sweet! It's the perfect picture of the two of them! Their romance was always so touching to me, especially after the fact that Eowyn was so brought down after Aragorn kinda...... um... rejected her.. lol...Yeah, it was nice for Eowyn to finally get her man in the end. Thanks a lot 12.

I really like the fine colouring of this one. What medium did you use?
It's a great drawing in every other respect too, of course. The light tones and Eowyn's and Faramir's fine features make this look otherworldly and fairytalish.Ah thank you very much indeed, this is exactly what I hoped for. And yes, all my work is done in watercolour.

This is one of my favorite passages in LOTR, too. I especially like the scene where Eowyn and Faramir are standing on the wall, looking east, the wind blowing their long hair so that it intermingles. That would be a cool scene to do too.

BTW, I've just spent several hours looking through your art, and your two sisters'. Great stuff! You all have tremendous imagination.Thank you very much indeed.

The problem with the short hair again: how can Faramir's and Éowyn's hair mingle with this short hair cut?
