Title: Eowyn and the Nazgul
Media: Pen and Ink. Size: 11" x 16"
This is a fanart piece of The Lord of the Rings.
This was entered into the ArtOrder Challenge.
I enjoyed sneaking as many Lord of the Rings symbols into the frame as I could. May 2011

I have to leave you a comment on this. The amount of detail here is staggering. I particularly love how you incorporated so much of the iconic symbolism in Lord of the Rings in this piece. Minas Morgul in the pane to the left, Minas Tirith to the right, the White Tree of Gondor, and of course, the eye of Sauron. Great job!

I discovered your gallery through the DD you received on Calm Madness, which is wonderful piece to look at. But speaking subjectively, I'm more fond of this piece. You did well incorporating all the symbols into one page. Furthermore, I'm fond of how you treated positive and negative space. This piece reads like an illuminated manuscript except done entirely in black and white.

And, this could just be the nostalgic child in me, but is your Eowyn inspired by the Rankin & Bass film? That would be a delightful nod!

Thanks. I was looking at a lot of bookplates and illuminated manuscripts. And I was definitely inspired by the Rankin and Bass movies. :D
