inzilbeth | 'Strider' by Jef Murray

I've been dying to post this here!

Jef, knowing what a big fan I am of our ranger, sent this to me weeks ago but I didn't feel I could show it off until he put it on his website, which he now has. It's an oil painting, measuring 16" by 21" .

I felt quite sure the bearded figure in the wax coat had to be none other than Jef himself though Jef assures me it isn't a self portrait and that this really is Strider!

I think it's fabulous!
