Some of my tapestry-like LOTR artworks from 2018-2020!

I know you’ve already seen them before, but I wanted to gather them in one post and set the inspiration mood for the project I’ve been working on these past weeks! Can’t wait to finally show you! ⚔️🍃🌋✨

So, in the meantime, tune in on your Howard Shore playlist and happy Sunday!

Julius Grimm (1842-1906)

In 1888, Julius Grimm used photography and telescope observation to create this intricately detailed and precise oil painting of the moon. In the night sky, the moon is always lit from behind you – so the shadows of the craters can never appear as they do in this painting. Grimm instead regarded the moon as if it were a still life, bathed in golden light emanating from the left side of the painting. 

“The picture should only be hung or positioned, that the light falls onto the picture from the side where the arrow is positioned, because otherwise, in the case of incorrect lighting, the effect could be completely lost.”

We used to look up at the sky and wonder at our place in the stars. Now we just look down, and worry about our place in the dirt.
