Long time no see....In these dire and tragic times, we sometimes need a place to escape to for distraction....even if it's only fictional. That is what I did for the last three weeks. For me, this escape consists of my little family (which luckily is not fictitious at all! ), my work, which takes me to so many wonderful and imaginative places, and the world of my elven character "Jaquar". Jaquar is my tragic roleplaying hero originally from a tabletop roleplaying group, set in the world of J.R.R. Tolkien´s ´Silmarillion`. Unfortunately, the group was parted without our characters found an end or having achieved any goal. But Jaquar gave me so much joy, heartache, tears and sleepless nights that I've rewritten his story and dedicated a whole personal project to him since last year. But although two friends are already supporting me, it will probably be a long time before I can show anything. It all happens alongside work and I don't get to do it very often. Nevertheless, I'm happy every time I find the time to work on the project again. So I've finally finished this picture, which I started back in the days of the role-playing group...and which I haven't finished until now. It shows Jaquar and his family, who had their home in the (then it was still Tolkien's "Brethil") forest. Jaquar, his father Erandor and his mother Maradá were able to experience peace and happiness there for a few years...until fate had something else in mind for them....to be continued..... 😉
