Frodo Halted, Looking Back
|

"Frodo halted for a moment, looking back. Elrond was in his chair and the fire was on his face like summer-light upon trees. Near him sat the Lady Arwen. To his surprise Frodo saw that Aragorn stood beside her; his dark cloak was thrown back, and he seemed to be clad in elven-mail, and a star shone on his breast. They spoke together, and then suddenly it seemed to Frodo that Arwen turned towards him, and the light of her eyes fell on him from afar and pierced his heart. "He stood still enchanted, while the sweet syllables of the elvish song fell like clear jewels of blended word and melody. 'It is a song to Elbereth," said Bilbo." The Fellowship of the Ring
I drew this for Mythlore way back when. I liked the idea of simply having the look in Frodo's eyes reflect the enchantment of the moment--the splendor of Rivendell and of its lord, Elrond Halfelven, and the sight of Aragorn together with Arwen, and Arwen capturing Frodo with the light of her eyes. Pen and ink.

things are getting really bad for me in RL, so I'm afraid that my participation in discussions is going to have to wait. Sorry.

Frodo's look of wonder is wonderful, WonderBroad

but I almost enjoy Bilbo's more. It says so much about his understanding and wisdom. Of course I love the moment you chose to illustrate.
