kayshasiemens:My super late art for the Silmarillion secret santa! Here is Galadriel for @lets-march-april-may - you mentioned you loved her intro in the book, and that got me thinking of her youth in Valinor, when her mother-name was Nerwen because she was just as tall and strong as her male playfellows, and tended to do the same not-traditionally-feminine things for fun. And somewhere it’s mentioned that it was from Celeborn seeing her with her hair pulled up in a wreath around her head for said activities that he gave her the name Alatáriel (’maiden crowned with a radiant garland’, Galadriel in Sindarin), and she liked it so much she was like ‘Yeah cool I’ll just go by that from now on.’So here you go, Galadriel having a grand time wrestling (or something, idk, how do I draw actiony things, help), and looking fabulous while doing it. Watch out [insert your favorite annoying Fëanorion cousin], she’ll kick your butt.(Col-erase pencils on paper, a bit of photoshop for lighting) -- source link
