So I'm watching The Two Towers. (Yes, I'm engaged in an end-of-year LOTR marathon; more on that later.) I pause the film to go to the kitchen, and on the way back, I look at the screen, and suddenly, for no reason at all, I'm compelled to do this:






Honestly, I have no idea why what possessed me to do this. I haven't picked up a pencil to draw in at least a decade. But that's the Muse for you.

Dayum, woman! I am jealous as hell that you can just pick up a pencil and produce something like this after so long. (That's because I can't draw a decent stick figure to save my life. ;)) You've caught the motion and depth of character so beautifully, especially in his eyes. Your use of shadow and texture is lovely and brings him to life even more. It would be quite wonderful (if a bit awkward) to have him suddenly materialize off the page for a visit, as he seems to be thinking about doing in your drawing.

I add my hope to those already expressed that you will be thus inspired many, many times. Very nicely done!
