His spouse (Tulkas)is Nessa, the sister of Orome, and she also is lithe and fleetfooted. Deer she loves, and they follow her train whenever she goes in the wild; but she can outrun them, swift as an arrow with the wind in her hair. In dancing she delights, and dances in Valimar on lawns of never-fading green. The Silmarillion, 'Valaquenta' I know, I know, she doesn't look like she's dressed to run with deer, but I wanted to show the dancing aspect of her nasture. I did the picture in the Mucha style (sort of). She was fun to design. mechanical pencil, pen, prismacolor.

Nessa look beautiful. I love the shading and the beads on her forehead. The colour scheme's great, pink and green don't usually go so well together lol. Her neck is looks a tad too thin tho... Its one of the better pictures of Nessa that I've seen. keep up the good work! 1

wow. i love this!! the movement in the skirts is awesome!! very well done. I adore your color scheme here. very nice...really catches the eye. cookies!!
I'll have to agree your necks are a bit long, but it doesn't look bad. The rest of the anatomy seems spot on to me!!
