Tolkien Pictures: Part One




Like a lot of folks I know, I'm completely enamored with J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings.  I also really like The Hobbit, and as I read through it about seven years ago, I came up with a few illustrations.  This is the first and it depicts the scene when Thorin and company talk to the old raven.  It's pen and ink--one of my favorite mediums.



Here's a close-up of the scraggly old bird.
