A Elbereth Gilthoniel, silivrenpenna miriel o menel aglar elenath! Na-chaered palan-diriel. O galadhremmin ennorath, fanuilos, le linnathon nef aear, si nef aearon! O Star-Queen, Star-Kindler... white glittering slants down sparkling like jewels from firmament glory of the star-host! To-remote distance after having gazed from tree-woven Middle Earth, snow-white, to thee I will chant on this side of the ocean, here on this side of the great ocean. Hymn to Elbereth, sung in Elrond's house. Sindarin, Fellowship of the Ring, pg 250, translated by Ruth S. Noel. Picture of the Star-Kindler, loved and worshipped by the Elves of Tolkien's creation. I was surprised that no one seemed interested in drawing this beloved goddess... the characters in the Lord of the Rings seem to call upon her enough. :)

oh, I get it! YOur Zone pics are earlier works. I see you're getting the hang of this shading thing! Try to remember, shadows are harder and deepest closest to the source of the light. This is very nice! Easy on the eyes. I like blue!!

Re: I KNOW HHHEEERRRR! *Looks pleased with self*
Du- *Dark look* A certain Elrohir wouldn't have happened to have called on her, WOULD HE? Oh, yes, this is a lovely drawing, especially lovely. You like lord of the Rings too? Re:Yah! See Du? We weren't mentioned, and yet Elladen and Elrohir- WAIT A SECOND, DID ELLADEN CALL?! *Looks tearful* If he does, tell him I Like him! or wait, don't! Tha'd seem desperate...I know! I'll shrink him! Must go continue the Elvish witch lessons with Gandelf!
Du-hmmm...shrink Elrohir...I doubt Elrond would be very keen on the thought...but if I gave him a treadmill...
