Lúthien, oh Lúthien. I had a lot of problems with this one. Still have. First of all I think Lúthien ist a bit overrated. Well, ok, she’s really a tough one, but most of the time all you see of her is she doing some dancing, more or less well dressed. As you may have […]

Well, I think this drawing is the godfather of this series. Although I did not invent the whole f-elves … thingy, when I drew this one, it was the first time I used the phrase in reference to one of my drawings. .:. This post is part of the Series ‘Mightiest and Fairest of all […]
.:. Mightiest and Fairest of all F-Elves .:. Of Glaurung, the Golden
I didn’t make him golden. That seemed just too much. I made him black, and I like him that way. I also like the flames – and the mountain. .:. This post is part of the Series ‘Mightiest and Fairest of all F-Elves – Illustrating Tolkiens Silmarillion’ You will find all the pictures in my […]
.:. Mightiest and Fairest of all F-Elves .:. Of Aredhel Ar-Feiniel again
I wanted to do something new. Something completely different, yet still the same. I like the way the colour concentrates around her and fades away to the right. Do you see the looming figure in the dark? Which version do you like better? .:. This post is part of the Series ‘Mightiest and Fairest of […]

.:. Mightiest and Fairest of all F-Elves .:. Of Gondolin
The hidden city. Surrounded on all sides by mountains. And a lot of trees. I like it. Although maybe there’s a bit too much of white space … And it’s crooked, somehow. .:.

Where have all the leaves gone?
It’s really cold and wet and dark outside. November has finally arrived and put an end to pretty autumn and golden October days.

Good Old Reliable
The folks over at the headquarter of the ‚German Tolkien Society‘ must think me nuts. Every time they announce any kind of art competition – photographs, drawing … – my name is guaranteed to pop up, entering with at least one piece of work. They really must think I have nothing better to do?
