Pieces from the collection are available at The Rapture Gallery, Harrogate and HG4 Gallery, Ripon


Welcome to the blog and this collection of original artwork inspired by The Lord of the Rings and J.R.R Tolkien's wider mythology of Middle-earth. Aside from the influence of Director Peter Jackson's film trilogy (2001-2003) inspiration is also drawn from the highly regarded Tolkien illustrators Alan Lee and John Howe, and the magnificent musical score written for the film trilogy by Howard Shore. From Mordor to the Misty Mountains combines landscape, miniature-scale and composite photography to illustrate locations, dramatic scenes and characters from the enduringly popular stories.

Items in the collection are available to purchase from The Rapture Gallery in Harrogate, North Yorkshire (see image link below right to go direct to The Rapture website)

Ammended prices and available sizes to be updated soon...

Yorkshire Tolkien artist in local North Yorks press

Thursday 13th December: A page 4 feature in the Harrogate Advertiser and Ripon Gazette puts the focus on the local landscape I've used when finding influence to create pieces from the collection. Here Minas Tirith, featuring a hero shot of St. Peter's Church in Harrogate, gets a nice prominent picture.
