Of Narya

"Take this ring, Master," he said, "for your labours will be heavy**; but it will support you in the weariness that you have taken upon yourself. For this is the Ring of Fire, and with it you may rekindle hearts in a world that grows chill. But as for me, my heart is with the Sea, and I will dwell by the grey shores until the last ship sails. I will await you." '

[Appendix B, The Lord of the Rings]


My attempt at drawing the scene of Cirdan offering Mithrandir the Elven ring Narya as described is the two paragraphs above.The colours are slightly modified; it is originally drawn with red and black ballpoint pen on top of a pencil draft. (And the frame took me soooo much time.... even though I had expected it; I am terrible at drawing strictly symmetrical stuff, and I know it...)

Maybe I will have a try on the other two rings, when I get over with my own complaint about symmetrical frames LOL

And Cirdan and Mithrandir(Gandalf) are Prof. Tolkien's Elf and Maia, suppose you know that already
