"One Ring to Rule Them All" by Grace Dawn Palmer

SciFi/Fantasy Picture 48 out of 72 by Grace Dawn Palmer. ←Previous - Next→


	Illumination of the Ring Poem from Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, in a composite medeival style that I thought felt better for Middle Earth (It's a combination of early Celtic and 14th century elements, largely). Egg and gum paint, shellac-based india ink, and tea on Bristol plate.
