SciFi and Fantasy Art Yavanna Kementári by Neal R. Haney aka Olo Chubb of Deephollow

The spouse of Aulë is Yavanna, the Giver of Fruits. She is the lover of all things that grow in the earth, and all their countless forms she holds in her mind, from the trees like towers in forests long ago to the moss upon the stones or the small and secret things in the mould. In reverence Yavanna is next to Varda among the Queens of the Valar. In the form of a woman she is tall, and robed in green; but at times she takes other shapes. Some there are who have seen her standing like a tree under heaven, crowned with the Sun; and from all its branches there spilled a golden dew upon the barren earth, and it grew green with corn; but the roots of the tree were in the waters of Ulmo, and the winds of Manwë spoke in its leaves. Kementári, Queen of the Earth, she is surnamed in the Eldarin tongue. The Silmarillian. 'Valaquenta'. Yavanna is my favorite of the Valar. I wanted to show her in all her grandness. I decided to draw her creating the Two Trees of Valinor. It kind of turned of looking like art nouveau. I hope you enjoy her. mechanical pencil, pen, and prismacolor.

17 Nov 2007	Sarah Cuypers	Loading... You've got a lovely series of the Valar going here. Beautiful and diverse, but Yavanna is my absolute favourite of them all. Especially because I find the design and colour her dress wonderful. Great work.
