The Protectors Of Iceland: My Fantasy Paintings Inspired By Icelandic Myths And Music
I did these paintings for the album “Með Vættum” by the Icelandic metal band Skálmöld. The inspiration comes partly from Heimskringla, an Icelandic Saga, but also from the amazing lyrics written by Snæbjörn Ragnarsson.
The album tells the story of an unknown heroine who grows up with the wights (mythical creatures), protecting the land from harm.

They are beautiful, somehow deep down they touch my soul and it feels like I have been there and that it the magic of it all.
They are beautiful, all of them. Somehow they touch my soul deep inside and it feels like I have been there. That's really the magic of it
They remind me of the worlds portrayed in the lord of the rings.... Loved them
Tolkien was actually inspired by icelandic folklore and nordic mythology, which is probably why it reminds you of LOTR
