Haven't decided if I'm done with this yet.. Goldberry River Daughter
What Goldberry and Tom Bombadil are to me LMAO
Pauline Baynes illustrations for THE HOBBIT, THE ADVENTURES OF TOM BOMBADIL, and BILBO’S LAST SONG.
i love reading tolkien’s descriptive passages. there’s just something about them that makes them so vivid
also all the em dashes lol
Tom Bombadil is the Master. No one has ever caught old Tom walking in the forest, wading in the water, leaping on the hill-tops under light and shadow. He has no fear. Tom Bombadil is master.
huge fan of tom and goldberry......
Goldberry, River-Daughter by Marie Magny
I love these two so much I just want to get lost in the woods to find them </3 Tom Bombadil bringing his lovely wife some water lilies.
Tom Bombadil and lovely Goldberry, about to have a little dance! I love their long, flowing hair but alas, I am not the best at drawing flowy hair.
"Fair lady!" said Frodo again after a while. "Tell me, if my asking does not seem foolish, who is Tom Bombadil?" "He is," said Goldberry, staying her swift movements and smiling. Frodo looked at her questioningly. "He is, as you have seen him," she said in answer to his look. "He is the Master of wood, water, and hill." "Then all this strange land belongs to him?" "No indeed!" she answered, and her smile faded. "That would indeed be a burden," she added in a low voice, as if to herself. "The trees and the grasses and all things growing or living in the land belong each to themselves. Tom Bombadil is the Master. No one has ever caught old Tom walking in the forest, wading in the water, leaping on the hill-tops under light and shadow. He has no fear. Tom Bombadil is master."
— J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring
O slender as a willow-wand! O clearer than clear water! O reed by the living pool! Fair River-daughter! O spring-time and summer-time, and spring again after! O wind on the waterfall, and the leaves’ laughter!’
So I've been really in love with the Goldberry design for the Magic the Gathering; Lord of the Rings Set and I wanted to draw her in my style.
