@twizzlytwist.bsky.social Thank you for lending me N’arfi to draw. Their wedding outfit is absolutely beautiful! 💖

(Unfortunately I realized too late how buff they actually are compared to the screenshots I referenced (╥ ᴗ ╥))

I drew beloved Tar-Míriel for the @numenorfaithfulcal.bsky.social charity calendar! 🌊💙

#TROP | #Tolkien | #macchiavato
Miriel, dressed in a flowy dress and gold jewelry, is sitting relaxed in a filled bathtub. Her long hair is fanned over the edge of the tub. Her left arm is casually propped up on the edge of the tub. The tub stands on a marble floor of star patterned tiles, submerged a few inches underwater.

cw incest (cousins)
House of the Dragon fan art. Inside a medieval building two figures lean against a table. In the background sun shines through latticed windows, and a censer hangs from the upper right corner. In the foreground stands a round table, various glass bottles with perfumes stand on it. A young man, Gwayne,is half sitting, half leaning against it. His shirt and jacket are open. Between his legs stands another man, Ormund, dressed in similar greens. He is leaning into Gwayne's space with a smile, playfully tugging at the ribbons on Gwayne's shirt. Gwayne is looking up at him, blushing, with half-lidded eyes.
