The Brightest Idea

I'm so excited to reveal my second artwork for @tolkienrsb 2024.

〔´∇｀〕

Stay tuned for the upcoming story written by the wonderful @thesummerestsolstice!, which will be available on the 6th of September.

I am delighted by the direction of the story they came up with, and I can’t wait for you to read it!

[hello-from-valinor]

Yesterday I was checking how the Noldor sailed and there's a wonderful paragraph there. It basically goes like: "Ossë didn't attack the Noldor despite his love for the Teleri, because the Valar had said to not interfere with them." And then, after one or it two sentences, "Uinen made some storms and drowned some ships". (Sorry, it's from memory, but this general meaning.)

Which means it basically went something like this:

Ossë: They killed my friends!

Uinen: What are we going to do about it?

Ossë (who is still on probation I guess): Nothing. There Valar forbade us from doing anything. *sniff* Hey, where are you going?

Uinen: ...shopping.

*a few storms later*

Uinen: ... So, my lord, Ossë didn't do anything. And I'm... Well, I'm not sorry, but I'm ready to take whatever punishment you see fit.

Ulmo: You are on clam duty. Both.

Seriously, Tolkien had so many hidden gems. Yeah Ossë couldn't do anything because of course everybody listens to the Valar, well, except Uinen in the very next sentence, she didn't care.

Celeborn is looking for more clients.

Does anybody need a video editor?

For your wedding video, youtube etc?

He can do video editing and simple animations.

Example of his work:

DM me here or on instagram, or drop a comment if you need videos or you know about somebody who is looking for this kind of product.

Please help us by rebloging if you feel like it, thank you so much.

19 tyelkoromë

19. One person stopping a kiss to ask “Do you want to do this?”, only to have the other person answer with a deeper, more passionate kiss. (send me a prompt!)

What is it like to be loved by a god?

Oromë has much to say about what it is like to love as a god: it is sharp, like a wound to the heart that never ceases its dripping; it is fierce, like anyone's love would be were it fated to bleed; it is glory, like the gold rising on the horizon magnified tenfold, blinding and burning: all-encompassing, all-enfolding, all-embracing dawn.

But what Tyelkormo feels—what it is like for him to feel his hair singed by the fire that could raze forests as well as it could raise kingdoms; to look upon the wrathful gaze that inspires fear and worship and desire in a single unblinking moment—is a question Oromë has never had answered.

'Are you sure?' he stops to ask Tyelkormo, pulling back just slightly so that only a breath lies between them. He still tastes fire and eagerness and the brash boldness of youth on his tongue.

Yet Tyelkormo does not respond with words, but chases sensation with a heat in his spirit that makes Oromë remember the Flame Imperishable, and captures them both again in a burning, bruising kiss. And all turns to fire, and to sharpness, and to golden glory rising on a victorious dawn, and Oromë thinks that perhaps he has his answer.

What is it like to be loved by a god?

It is to burn.

Awww

So I made another russingon because I have no impulse control—

It’s a quick work so it’s not high quality work but something’s something ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I also have no idea of how to draw or pint scars 🙃

Shadowy apparition

Luthien looks back, but only to make sure they are leaving no tracks.

Another study for @feanorianweek but since it had basic colors I decided to shade it too!

My blog/page/thing/whatever you people call it on this website consists primarily of reblogs, but of the perhaps three people who follow me that may or may not even themselves be active, I wanted to share a circa three years ago drawing I did of the Archangel Metatron, one of the first things I did on my digital drawing app, but I think he could be a fun stand-in for Mairon/Sauron in his spirit/Maia form. Ignore the Hebrew in the corner.

To finish this cosmic illustration series here’s my last work of “Varda & Manwe” dancing in the skies, which is a small comic strip for the Zine “Cosmos”. No words needed. Instagram | Twitter | Ko-fi

I like this theory a lot and it makes lots of sense

You know, if Morgoth can curse people and their offspring for eternity, like he does to Húrin, why didn’t he do it more often? Seems like a pretty effective strategy
