More progress on the Ancalagon painting: now come the seabirds and some more shading on the dragon.
Ça fait des années que des élèves travaillent 3h supplémentaires par semaine pour un rendement ridicule sur leur moyenne.
Ils travaillent plus : qu'ils gagnent plus !

A cover of the very first edition of The Hobbit published in Portugal (1962). Translated by Maria Isabel Braga and Mário Braga, the book notably used the term "gnomo" for the title instead of Tolkien's preferred "hobito". This edition features delightful artwork by António Quadros. #WyrdWednesday

Re-reading Lord of the Rings. Had to do a quick Frodo doodle.
The Fangorn LOTR vibes were strong from this ancient forest…

Alatar, Morihentar, Palacendo, Darkness Slayer, Blue Wizard. Hard to say if they’re the same Maia but also isn’t wild to assume so. Oromë’s friend is the only Istar who had a request which was company. He headed East, never to return. I prefer the version where Alatar did slay some darkness, 1/2

Working on a watercolour of Ancalagon the Black for the 2027 Beyond Bree Tolkien calendar. The blue stuff is rubber masking fluid. I also experimented with salt to give the wet-in-wet parts some more texture. Now come the scales and a small brush ...

Les pages que Tolkien consacre à l'enfance de Túrin auprès de son serviteur boiteux Sador, surnommé Labadal, sont parmi les plus émouvantes évocations d'une jeune volonté face à un monde hostile.
