20 Jul 2005	Julie R. Kowalski	Loading... Love the expression and color...brilliant!Thank you very much!
27 Jul 2005	Mona	Loading... She looks really otherwordly. The contrast brought by her hair is neat - and the tiny blue gem is a good detail.Thank you very much. I'm glad she looks 'otherworldly' as you put it. Of course, I don't find this inappropriate.
20 Oct 2005	Hana "Marmota" Běťáková	Loading... Is the thing on her neck inspired by Celts? Really interesting.It is indeed .
13 Dec 2005	Ian	Loading... Nice torc around the neck of Finduilas! Only problem with your work is that all the elf-maidens seem to have the same facial features and expression. Where is the love for Túrin in her face? If I didn't know the story I would think that the elf-man was pursuing her rather than vice-versa.Fair point concerning the Elf-maidens -- I shall have a think about this for future works. But I still think Finduilas' look of yearning and yet knowledge of the hopelessness of her situation (coupled with Túrin's ignorance) is suitable for the portrayal. He even has his eyes closed, yet again blind to things around him...
5 Jan 2006	Isilthien from Poland	Loading... I was looked at your pictures and I was thinking that you're excellent artist.I just can't wai for another new pix;-). Good work,mr.Price...Thank you very much indeed. I don't get to paint as often as I'd like to right now, but every now and then the gallery is updated -- there's one on the way as I type.
12 Jun 2009	Natalie Adams	Loading... Alas, poor Finduilas....her death upset me most of all from the Silmarillion, such a pointless death, and so tragic too....you caught her Elven beauty perfectly here!
