Tag As FavoriteComment		It is told in the Lay of Leithian how she escaped from the house in Hirilorn; for she put forth her arts of enchantment, and caused her hair to grow to great length, and of it she wove a dark robe that wrapped her beauty like a shadow, and it was laden with a spell of sleep. Of the strands that remained she twined a rope, and she let it down from her window; and as the end swayed above the guards that sat beneath the tree they fell into a deep slumber. Then Lúthien climbed from her prison, and shrouded in her shadowy cloak she escaped from all eyes, and vanished out of Doriath.

She looks less delicate than I usually picture her, but that's not a bad thing since she's still beautiful and you can sense her determination and resolve. For some reason, I really like her hair too...of course, her hair is all-important to this scene, hehe. Great job, as per usual.

wow very nice watercolor. I try a lot to paint with watercolor, a new favorite medium of mine, but I don’t think I could produce anything close to this!
