The Silmarillion: The Lesser Valar

Description

After the Aratar, here are the Valar that are not as powerful.

To my personal surprise they were much more difficult to draw than the Aratar, maybe because there isn’t much info about some of them and it’s a bit vague what kind of deity some of them actually are.

 

A  short and easy Who is Who:

 
Lorien:
Also known as Irmo, Lord of visions and dreams, brother of Mandos and Nienna. His beautiful garden was a place to rest and refresh.


Este: Lady of rest, healer of hurts and weariness, wife of Lorien, slept during the days in their garden.

 
Vaire:
The godly weaver; she weaves the story of the world, wife of Mandos.


Vana: Also called the Ever-young, the younger sister of Yavanna and wife of Orome. Flowers sprang and birds sang when she passed.

 
Tulkas:
The champion of the Valar, came to their aid against Melkor. Though he’s the most warlike of the Valar, he likes to laugh and is not easily made angry, but if, he’s also very slow to forgive.


Nessa:
Quite a lively young lady, Nessa could outrun a deer and loved to dance. She’s the younger sister of Orome and married Tulkas.

I have never envisioned Este in such colours, thez do not associate with healing lifeforce for me, but she looks great and with such loving expression she might wear anything and get message through. I have never been excited about Vana, but I think that picture of this lovely lady made me appreciate her a tad bi more. And I love how Vaire's hair are actually weaved, well, braided as well. Very pleasant picture.
