“Star Kindler“
Oil on canvas, 13″x21″ wide.
Artist Commentary: ‘Then Varda went forth from the council and she looked out from the heights of Taniquetil, and beheld the darkness of Middle–earth beneath the innumerable stars, faint and far. Then she began a great labour, greatest of all the works fo the Valar since their coming into Arda. She took the silver dews from the vast of Telperion, and therewith she made new stars and brighter against eh coming of the Firstborn; wherefore she whose name out of the deeps of time and the labours of Ea was Tintalle, the Kindler, was called after by the Elves Elentari, Queen of the Stars” – J.R.R. Tolkien, The Silmarillion

“The Ring Goes South“
Oil on canvas, 13″x21″ wide.
Artist Commentary:
I spent Saturday hiking the empty crags and peaks in the westernmost foothills of the Misty Mountains. The December day was chilly, but the winter sun made many of the heather-filled vales hint of the warmer days of autumn ending. As I was seeking for it, I came suddenly upon a prospect opening nearly at my feet: the edge of a cliff that fell down, down from the heights and into a green valley cleft into the rock below. From this height I espied waterfalls on the cliff face opposite me, and these plummeted to dwelling places that ran along a river below.
As I stood there, marveling at the view and considering whether I should attempt to paint it, I saw movement on the slopes before me. Soon an unusual couple strolled my way. The first was a tall old man with a staff; the second clearly a halfling, although why he was here so far from the Shire, I couldn’t guess. Then it dawned upon me. Certainly, these must be guests of the Last Homely House, which lay at the base of the cliffs upon which I then stood.
