This is a very beautiful image, and not just because of the gorgeous elf lady enjoying her bathing time. There are a lot of details that add a sense of intrigue to the painting, such as the elf maiden’s blue ring, the odd position of the rocks and the background, the blue lighting, the elven woman’s smile, and the mysterious gate and its stairway with the gate with what appears to be a Tengwar inscription (does this elf lady live in the world of the Silmarillion?)…the image would be perfect as a book cover (your work in general is actually good enough to make cover art out of) or something along those lines, as it has a very fascinating design that makes me wonder what inspired it. I’d also like to know what the Tengwar inscription actually reads, as I sadly cannot read it that well and am no expert on Quenya or Sindarin, as well as the identity of the elf lady herself as I feel there might definitely be more to her than meets the eye…
