I'm finally done with this painting! I started it in December and then kept putting it off, but I finally finished! I found one picture that didn't show any of the buildings on it and then added in the buildings from other reference pics that I found. So it's not exact but hopefully it's close. Enjoy!

is a landscape painting and i like attention to detail, not the 'blotchy' ones commonly sold in art stores.
I love your work Anorien and this is wonderful. You worked with diligence because my eye just keeps wandering over and back.
Thank you for showing us:)
''What connects Nature to the spiritual, or requires the presence of the latter? In positive terms, as Alkis Kontos points out, when nature was still largely experienced as integral, alive and active, 'It was the spiritual dimension of the world, its enchanted, magical quality that rendered it infinite, not amenable to complete calculability; spirit could not be quanified; it permitted and invited mythologization.' And I would add, it still is and does.''
Patrick Curry-Defending Middle-Earth-Tolkien: Myth and Modernity - chapter: 'The Sea: Spirituality and Ethics.'
May the grace of Manwë let us soar with eagle's wings!
In the air, among the clouds in the sky
Here is where the birds of Manwe fly
Looking at the land, and the water that flows
The true beauty of earth shows
With the stars of Varda lighting my way
In all the realms this is where I stay
In the realm of Manwë Súlimo

I'm not a big fan of impressionistic styles either, they always look wierd to me. I tried doing one of stonehenge and it just wasn't the same. Some are ok if they're done correctly.
Glad you like it!

I love the depth you have in your painting. You have very nice contrast in your colors also. Keep up the good work.

The larger image really brings out the depth. It gets better with each viewing.

the further mountain, middle-ish of frame, is beautiful. The nearer mountain on our left is rendered as if by the hand of God.

My favourite place in Middle Earth and what a superb work of art. Would love to have it hanging over our fireplace in the frontroom. Thank you for sharing it and keep on painting.
The boys are back in town!!
