Wow, kudos to you for deciding to draw a picture of these two characters. I've managed to find a few of them in my time, but not many, that's for sure. I think it's great when you come across any Silmarillion art, let alone portrayals of lesser thought-of characters. You've captured the scene very well indeed, too. Eol appears quite dashing and forceful, though probably not Aredhel's type (she seemed to me to be a Lady dis-interested in the opposite sex, except when it came to friendships), and here you manage to make her look uncomfortable and fey, which is really nice. The costuming is lovely too, especially on her white dress! My only slight criticism would be that I think you've made the White Lady a little too small in comparison to the 'Dark Elf' -- I simply imagined her to be a bit greater in stature considering she is a member of the Royal House of the Noldor, and daughter to the great Fingolfin (whereas Eol is more simply of Nandorin origin). Other than that though, great job!
I think it's wonderful! Finally, some Eol pictures! I have to admit i rather liked him. I don't think he was misunderstood-I mean he did try to kill his son-but I still pity him. Eol is probably my favorite out of the Silmarillion. He had character though we didn't see him too much.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
