Sam Rapp Illustrations

I’m celebrating National Hobbit Day with the first spread from my passion project: “The Hobbit” Picture Book! I’m so excited to be diving back into this project. I’ve been cranking away behind the scenes on a 60-page storyboard, so now “all that’s left” is to draw, draw, draw. “The Hobbit” is one of my favorites stories of all time, and I think it would be so fun for young kiddos to have a digestible format to dip their toes into the wonderful world of Tolkien’s imagination as early as possible. Stay tuned for weekly updates!

Finally got around to drawing some inspiration from The Rings of Power! I’m loving the harfoots SO much.

Kicking off some Middle Earth ABC’s!

Doesn’t this trio just make your heart mealt?

"He's one of them rangers. What his right name is, I've never heard, but 'round here, he's known as Strider."

Boil ‘em, mash ‘em, stick ‘em in a stew!

"And you have my bow." 

"I asked her for one hair from her golden head… she gave me three."
