Greetings! I'm Miriam Ellis. I'm an award-winning fine artist and an author. My work has taken first place in many adjudicated art exhibitions in California and is held in private collections throughout North America.

​

My book, The Art of Mercy in Middle-earth: Paintings Inspired by Tolkien's Legendarium, is available at Amazon and other fine booksellers. This book features 48 full-color paintings and essays rich in the themes of mercy, recovery, escape, consolation, high beauty, and fellowship in J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and The Silmarillion. Praise for the book from Tolkien community luminaries including Tom Shippey, Ted Nasmith, Holly Ordway, Sara Brown, Alan Sisto, and many more may be read here. I also invite you to follow my wonderful publisher on social media.​
