You know, I love that song . . . This picture is marvelous. |

really nice, jenny! It looks like watercolor primarily, is that it?
great job! |
| (Jenny Dolfen) |
It's watercolour/photoshop, two media that mix amazingly well. I've always thought pure watercolour lacked the vibrant colours I wanted, and purely digital colouring always looked dead when I used it. This is just a wonderful compromise.

I LOVE THAT SONG! AND I LOVE THIS PICTURE! |

I like the details on this picture a lot, especially the foreground. But I wouldn't put in the red flowers though. Seems a bit out of place in a wheat field. |
| (Jenny Dolfen) |
No, that's poppy, which grows in every field here between June and July. At times, the fields are more white and crimson with poppy and yarrow than yellow. I just love the way that looks, I had to put them in. :)

this reminds me of the farmlands that surround my area of the country. too bad we don't have any sea to gaze towards, though. The red flowers stand out really well against the golden grains and the figure's hair has been done very well with a realistic sense of the wind blowing. Hey, I almost missed the butterflies!! |
|
Anne El-Habre 2003-05-11 |
Jenny - this is a stunning piece! I really love the figure and the composition is wonderful! Fabulous! |
|
Nicole Cadet 2003-05-10 |
Beautiful. I love the colour scheme! The golden fields really set off the purple of her dress. |

I love that song :). This is a beautiful rendition, the open space is lovely! Great use of color and composition. |

Epilogue Guest 2003-06-13 |
IT'S BEAUTIFUL!! It's great! Yes, it did remind me of that song, one which brims tears in my eyes..
But it's lovely..She looks either homesick, or just lonely, as if maybe she's lost a friend and she's remembering him or her..
|
| (Jenny Dolfen) |
The latter :) And it's *him*, of course...

This is a truly stunning piece. I ordinarily don't use pure unmixed hues in watercolor, but in this piece the colors have a life of their own--it's perfect. Your work just keeps getting more amazing Jenny! |
| (Jenny Dolfen) |
That's because I didn't use watercolour to actually colour it. I painted it in greyscale and then put in the colours in Photoshop. I love that way of colouring.
|
|
Madeleine Gusdal 2003-06-22 |
Oh, so that's how you color these amazing drawings! I must try that sometime ;).
Back to the drawing: I just love her dress, and how the golden belt accentuates how golden the fields are. A beautiful, very serene scene, can wait to see more :D |
|
Julia Döring 2003-08-07 |
Believe me or not - as I saw this pic first, I digged through the old records of my parents until I found the song.
It's so awesome and fits so well! (shading that field must have been a lot of work...) |
|
Epilogue Guest 2003-08-08 |
That is SO my character from a D&D game I was in a long time ago....the song "Fields of Gold" always reminded me of Jude Sedai and her lover, Drew...who died before their quest was complete. |
|
Epilogue Guest 2003-09-11 |
breathtaking. and I think they're seagulls, not butterflies. ;)
Lovely gown....I know who she is, too... *sly grin* |
| (Jenny Dolfen) |
Haaaah, the searching game--there are seagulls *and* butterflies! ;)
|
|
Epilogue Guest 2003-10-03 |
GREAT! Great pic...I wish I could draw that good!! Its lovely, I love the detail, the way you put in the cheek bone, and the wrinkles in the dress, it looks so real! |
|
Epilogue Guest 2003-11-27 |
Fields of Gold... I love that song. It always makes me want to cry. Every time I hear it I think of my old rural home. I love the picture. Its simply beautiful. It makes me want to cry right now. She seems to be watching someone she loves leave. Its very... inspiring really. If I coudl draw, I'd probably draw something from this! Its really wonderful. I love looking at your art. Keep up the awesome(and I don't mean "awesome" in its common use) work! |

WHAT THE... crap would it take for a humane being to posses such divine talent. I could just scream...I really could. It's not fair that an angel can come down to earth and shun our shallow attempts at art. Go back where you came from and take little miss Linda with you :).

| (Jenny Dolfen) |
lol--thanks :)

Epilogue Guest 2004-02-20 |
Beautiful. I listened to that song as a young kid- as soon as I saw the title, I thought it fit perfectly. Then I saw the caption. That was awesome! Your art, especially the Silm stuff, is very inspiring. |

Epilogue Guest 2004-02-20 |
You know who this reminds me of? Amarië the lover of Finrod who was left behind in Valinor. You can just imagine her walking through the fields alone perhaps where she spent her days with the Noldor prince looking east to the sea in the distance and thinking of her lost love who travelled over. It's very sad I like it alot. |
| (Jenny Dolfen) |
Wow! I forgot to say that int he description, did I? This *is* actually Amarië.
|
|
Epilogue Guest 2004-03-08 |
Beautiful! As stated. *Nods*
I love this picture, and I was wondering if, with proper credit given, a might borrow this picture for an RPG character?
~Linds |
| (Jenny Dolfen) |
Could you write me an email to tell me what exactly you'd want it for?
|

Epilogue Guest 2004-04-05 |
wow wow wow wow wow wow this is beautiful...i am soo jealous because i have no artistic talent...and i love that song also
great work!!! |
|
Christine Garner 2004-06-17 |
beautiful :) I always think of Eva Cassidy when I hear or read the phrase 'Fields of Gold, but I read the Silmarrilion as well- can't remember much of it though, very long book! |
|
Tania Marg 2004-07-04 |
Oh really nice. I think this is my favorite of your works so far.
I like how you draw more males instead of females.. I'd rather draw females myself, though. They're more graceful I guess. |
|
Tania Marg 2004-07-04 |
Actually..
I think Amarie was supposed to have black hair. Oh well.. this is your version, you get artistic license, lol |
| (Jenny Dolfen) |
Amárie is never even described anywhere. :) But since she's of the Vanyar, she should be somewhere in the red to gold spectrum, I suppose.

Just wonderfull! I'm JoaquÃn (Efenleot) from Argentina. This is the very first pic of you that I laid eyes on, and I still can't get enough of it! :D I just love te nostallgy that flows in the atmosphere, that has more to do with the composition, that with colour, I think. If you get my meaning. How can you put so brightly beatifull colours, without diminishing the mellancoly in te pictures concept! :O |
