You've captured a very introspective look, or at least that's how I see her. I like the sort of Japanese hairstyle a lot.

[alasse_mirimiel]

I imagine she's either sewing or designing something so yes, it's an introspective moment. Glad the hairstyle works :D

I like her! Miriel is described as being generally gentle, but with a streak of stubbornness. That seems to fit...

[alasse_mirimiel]

And gentle or not, she was an artist. This is how I picture her when in creative mode.

I LOVE how you did the hair. I love the Japanese aesthetic to begin with, but you also drew it very clean and effortless looking. I also really love her neck and shoulder. Very graceful.

Thank you! Normally I really struggle with the character's hairstyle, but I've had this image of her in my mind for quite a while. The Asian air just seemed to fit her.

I like her. She has an air of introspection which would be appropriate for the best broideress in the West. The pins keeping your hair out of her face, yet allowing for some ornamentation is perfect. I will assume that the decorations on the ends of the hair sticks were made by Finwe as a gift for his lovely bride.

Her image was very clear in my head, I'm happy to hear I managed to transmit that air of introspection. The hairstyle was there since the beginning, I thought it was simple and practical but not dull. I love the idea of the hair sticks’ decorations being a gift from Finwë!
