Watercolor portrait of Nerdanel. I seem to have forgotten that my blue paint refuses to cooperate, so I foolishly tried using it for her dress.
Also, it kinda looks like she's flexing?? And I didn't realize until I was almost done and started feeling intimidated cus she's literally MOGGING ME
(Excuse the poor camera quality my phone actually hates me.)
Small watercolor portrait I made of Maedhros (and by small, I mean the page is literally 3x4.5in) I'm trying to force myself to not be a perfectionist with my art.
Crablor giving autographs for @thescrapwitch, inspired by the concluding scene of her amazing fic Little Crab on the Big Stage. If you haven't already, go read it, it's one of my favourites!
Like an old little leaf in its hopeless dream Can't forget its bygone beauty, dance on the wind I can wait all my life to be taken away with flow Autumn shrouded by rain turns to cold winter snow When the birds fly away I'm still left here alone I still search for my own land where flowers grow
