Jerry Vanderstelt was in the right place at the right time. But it wasn’t luck that landed him there, it was hard work and making his own opportunities. Today this good fortune and hard work culminate when the artist releases a lithograph celebrating “The Fellowship of the Ring,” film released in 2001.
At the San Diego Comic-Con 2001, Elijah Wood walked around the mammoth floor of convention floor drinking in the celebration of popular culture and keeping his eye out for hints of how the world might accept the movie he had worked on that was about to overwhelm popular culture, the first film in Peter Jackson’s “The Lord of the Rings.”
Heads up to collectors and art aficionados alike. Artist Jerry Vanderstelt is composing a series of three LOTR Trilogy limited edition litographs, officially licensed by New Line Cinema. Each piece is 24×30 inches, printed on a Heidelburg press using archival inks on heavy 100 pound matte paper. They are also hand signed and numbered by the artist. Jerry has revealed the first lithograph representing The Fellowship of the Ring and it is absolutely stunning. For complete details, visit Jerry’s official website. [Vanderstelt.com]
