Thranduil's real scarred and blind face is beautiful tbh he deserves someone that loves him as he is so he doesn't need to hide behind a glamour anymore, I know elves only love once but

It also seems like the glamour is very energy draining idk it just makes me sad he feels like he has to be ashamed of (unhealed?) war injuries he probably got trying to save his wife from dragons

He's probably still in a lot of pain and seems like he's partially or fully blind and I don't know if he can even share it with anyone or if he just always hides it like even from his son and people

I imagine losing his wife, then recovering from painful injuries, being so ashamed of his new appearance and needing to go on for Legolas was very hard on him. :(

It's time to share another coffee painting from the archives, and this time, it's Samwise Gamgee's turn 🫶

I painted it before I was due to meet Sean Astin at the FACTS convention in Belgium. Last minute, I made another painting as I wasn't entirely happy with the first one, depicting the scene where Sam carries Frodo, because it's such an epic moment. I let him pick from either original, and he decided to keep the second one. He quickly grabbed a cup of coffee to pose with when I snapped a picture 😂

He was an absolute sweetheart, and he signed both prints for me to keep 🙏

I had a few people react to the Sam and Frodo-one, saying it doesn't look like Sam. But that's the tortured and sooty face he has during that particular scene 😅

Painted with instant coffee on heavyweight smooth paper.

Two elves clad in white steered it with black paddles. In the midst of the vessel sat Celeborn, and behind him stood Galadriel, tall and white; a circlet of golden flowers was in her hair, and in her hand she held a harp, and she sang. Sad and sweet was the sound of her voice in the cool clear air. — J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings, The Fellowship of the Ring, "Farewell to Lórien"
