Elves

I have taken inspiration from the elves in 'Lord of the Rings'. I was drawn to their ethereal beauty and this is something I would like to capture. 

One character I have particularly looked at is Lady Galadriel. Tolkien describes Galadriel as "the mightiest and fairest of all the Elves that remained in Middle-earth". She is of royal blood and is one of the most powerful women in middle earth. 

I am going to use her description from the books and Peter Jacksons film series where she is portrayed by Cate Blanchett as inspiration. Therefore I will be create a hairstyle that is long and curly and pinned back. I am also going to add some fake ivy with glitter on it to the hair to enhance the elven look and create a visual link to nature.
