Remember the days when we thought Ethan Hawke was going to play Faramir? Ah…the good old days. Davey sends this along today, thought it was interesting: Ethan Hawke was on Conan O’Brien and Conan mentioned how he loves LOTR. Ethan said that at the premiere he was so excited thoughout the movie he was yelling things like “GANDALF FOR PRESIDENT!” “Frodo Lives!”. Undoubtly Conan made fun of him by yelling “RUN FRODO” “GANDALF NOOO!”. Quite entertaining.
Mary sends along these amazing images and a little note about her small company located in Toronto. Take a look at her wonderful tilework! And get yours today! I wrote a few months ago and mentioned that I was doing some Art Tiles that were Tolkien inspired (Silmarillion) and was encouraged to send images when the works were complete. I have sent them with this email. Just thought you might want to see them. My company is very small, just me, producing very limited production Art Tiles and custom work.
