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.

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!
