✨A Mysterious Portrait☁️

A rare portrait of Ëonwë, the Maia chief and the herald of Manwë, up close. Who would have it in their possession? Who would have painted it? Was it commissioned by someone? What relationship does the owner of the portrait have with Ëonwë and how did they come to possess it?

Your guess is as good as mine😌

My entry for @fall-for-tolkien event! Finally got to posting the finished version! I took inspiration from Winifred by Frederick Sandys, a prominent pre-Raphaelite painter, while also showcasing how I imagine Ëonwë’s human form: he resembles all things sky, with his hair and skin reminiscent of clouds and the freckles on his skin resembling stars:) considering he was Manwë and Varda’s son in the earlier versions, I think it’s a fitting look for the most powerful Maia who needs to keep his appearance friendly for the People of Arda nonetheless.

I also headcanon Ëonwë to have sensitivity issues and being basically disabled so him having a form of albinism as well works great to me🙂‍↕️

according to westerners:

north korea and iran sending missiles to russia so they can kill us isn't an escalation

russians hunting down civilians with drones in occupation isn't an escalation

russians specifically killing civilians in their beds, in hospitals, at train stations, in schools etc isn't an escalation

russians going into NATO's airspace with missiles every other day isn't an escalation

russians interfering in elections all over the world isn't an escalation

did i forget anything? are we waiting for more? i genuinely can't understand these people's logic

[fatalwamod]

This! I swear!

I wish European governments understood this more. russia is constantly freely escalating, probing and trying "little things" and SUCCEEDS because it gets no punishment.

A drone or a fighter jet in our sky? Don't worry, it came back right after.

A missile crater on our lands? It's fine, it was by mistake, it was meant for Ukraine anyway.

Explosives in a German airport? It's only because a Ukrainian plane was there.

Your fear of escalation is going to kill us all.

Passing along for all the writers out there!

making friends is like. does this person consider me a friend or am i being weird? am i being annoying right now? is this funny or am i weird? do you like to play like me or am i weird? i really like writing with you and i want to know you better but i don't want to make you uncomfortable. i'm still testing the waters, is this raunchy joke funny or am i being weird? i want to know what you think is funny. i want to know what you like. i want to know the sorts of things you like to read and write so i can do it better for you. i'm still figuring you out and i can't tell if you're like me or if i'm just weird.

The painting is titled "Life (triptych) - Returning" (also known as "Return" or "Повернення" in Ukrainian).

This artwork is the final part of a celebrated triptych by the Ukrainian artist Fedir Krychevsky (also spelled Thodor Krytchevsky). The full triptych, titled "Life" ("Життя" in Ukrainian), consists of three parts: "Love", "Family", and "Return".

Key details about the painting:

Artist: Fedir Krychevsky

Title: Life (triptych) - Returning

Date: Painted between 1925 and 1927

Style: A prominent example of Ukrainian modernism, synthesizing Art Nouveau elements with traditional Ukrainian religious painting

Location: The original is held in the collection of the National Art Museum of Ukraine in Kyiv

Subject: The "Return" panel allegorically depicts the return of a son from war to his family, symbolizing hope for a new life

taboo fanfics today are to antis what horror movies were to puritans in the 80s during the satanic panic

[redstonedust]

that thing about horror movies feeling more real when the characters look like average people but about erotic art instead. sure you can draw a pin-up of a perfectly standard proportioned anime character but my brain is always gonna be like. well that's just a drawing. that's just pixels. but give them body hair and fat rolls and acne scars and stretch marks and and im like. 🫪 woah 🫪 that's a human 🫪 and they're naked 🫪

I think it’s weird and annoying that there’s this societal push for “let women be feminine again!!!” when there has still never been any acceptance for masculine women
