That incredibly weird to me considering they're two of the primary Tolkien artists. It's especially crazy because I know there are illustrated copies of The Hobbit, LOTR, and The Children of Hurin all by Alan Lee. You'd think if he didn't like them he'd not continue to use them. Unless I'm completely off base and he has no input in who illustrates the books. But I find that unlikely.
There's a sad sort of clanging from the clock in the hall and the bells in the steeple, too. And up in the nursery an absurd little bird is popping out to say coo-coo (coo-coo, coo-coo).

I admit that my Middle-earth was shaped by Alan Lee's paintings,

I found it interesting that Christopher Tolkien cited John Howe and Alan Lee

I'm not sure Christopher Tolkien is complaining about any one specific art style...

They got the harbor right, and the ship style, and the direction and the time of day...
