SciFi and Fantasy Art Crossing Nimrodel by Anke Katrin Eissmann

''Follow me!' he cried. 'The water is not deep. Let us wade across! On the further bank we can rest, and the sound of the falling water may bring us sleep and forgetfulness of grief.' One by one they climbed down and followed Legolas. For a moment Frodo stood near the bank and let the water flow over his tired feet. It was cold but its touch was clean, and as he went on and it mounted to his knees, and he felt that the stain of travel and all weariness was washed from his limbs.'

J.R.R. Tolkien: The Lord of the Rings, Book 2, Chapter 6: Lothlórien

30 Jan 2005	Kel <star_sprite0101@yah...c	Loading... what? no other comments? ahhh! unapreciative people! i love your style in water. Water is a hard point for me. Very nice on theh hand too. (can i set some of your pics as backrounds for my site?)
24 Oct 2005	Pixiedust	Loading... Ur painting style is very much reminescent of alan lee...But u add ur own flare...Its quite beautiful.
23 Dec 2005	Lily	Loading... I have to agree with the last statement. Quite true.
13 May 2006	Dude	Loading... Oh my goodness!!! This is perfect!!!^^
30 Jan 2007	Estel Dunadan	Loading... Some may think your pictures are like Alan Lee's, but I think they're much much better! Actually I heartily disagreed with his design of the City of the Galadhrim, but your Lorien is wonderful! Both this picture and "Atop Cerin Amroth" (I don't believe you've posted any others of Lorien?) are so much better than my imagination, which is too weak for me to attempt any such art. I really wish you made the sets for the LotR movies, especially for places of elves. No, all of them. I can't think of any set that was better than your pictures. Please keep posting pictures!! I keep coming back to look for new ones, but I'm not tired of those already here! I doubt that I'll ever be tired of them!
