It’s been a minute…
So with the slow trickle of news regarding the Hunt for Gollum movie I thought I’d post this older drawing I did of our Precious in the goblin tunnels of the Misty Mountains. Drawn with pens for Inktober, 2018.
@Drawherty I'm actually surprised by how poorly The Invisible Man is performing, but it's these hard choices that determine what people actually want and where we should invest our time!
“Go forth boldly!”
Today marks the feast of the Maid of Orleans, St. Joan of Arc. To commemorate the occasion, here’s a piece I drew six years ago with prismacolor pencils on Strathmore toned paper

Boughs of Refuge
The Holy Family hide from the soldiers of Herod. It is said that a Juniper tree growing in their path opened its branches & concealed them from the murderers. In gratitude they blessed the tree - making it the favorite Christmas tree for many.

Fellow Tolkien admirers!
I just finished watching War of the Rohirrim … and really didn’t care for it. It felt underwhelming, melodramatic, and kinda pointless So! Those of you who have seen it and liked it, what am I missing?
Merry Christmas!
Here’s an older piece I painted a few years ago for a small greeting card company that I never shared. Done in watercolor and #prismacolor pencils.
Wishing you and yours a joyous Christmas season!
Yuletide in Middle-earth.
Taken from an oft overlooked section from The Hobbit, Bilbo returns from the Lonely Mountain with Gandalf and Beorn (in his bear form) to celebrate the season of Yule at Beorn’s lodge with the men of Wilderland.

It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year plays on the radio and I hear the lyrics: “there’ll be scary ghost stories…” Is this a reference to Dickens’ A Christmas Carol or is there some weird old Christmas tradition involving spooky tales that I’ve been missing out on?
