Ted Nasmith himself dropped me a line asking to promote this fundraiser for a worthy cause, take a look! Just a quick email to let everyone know that 2 original pieces of Ted Nasmith’s work will be on a 10 day auction on ebay starting at 10pm today (UK time).

Tom Bombadil and the River Daughter by Ted Nasmith

Luthien Escapes Upon Huan by Ted Nasmith original art

Tom Bombadil and The River Daughter and also Luthien Escapes upon Huan. Although both pieces should sell for around £4000 each they have a start price of only £1250 each and no reserve. The proceeds from the sale are all going towards urgently needed medical expenses for a loved member of Ted’s family so please give generously and bid early.
