silm fans are really like "god i love the silm but you can really see how sexist tolkien was. anyway here's reason 3478283493 why this male character's awful actions are this female character's responsibility. why do we never talk about how much death and suffering she caused by pushing him to do what he did :(((("

[exercise-of-trust]

Just wanted to say I absolutely love your art and character design, you give each one such vibrancy and life and detail, I love seeing all of it

i'm gonna be so honest right now i skimmed over this ask, read your handle at the end first, and said out loud "oh that'll be fun, i can work on my beorian clothing styles a bit more!" before i even processed that you. uh. Did Not Actually Request Morwen. Or Anyone Else For That Matter. and then i decided oh, what the hell, i'm gonna do a morwen anyway, so here you go lmao hope you enjoy the product of my complete lack of reading comprehension 😭

(not currently taking requests, although apparently if i associate you enough with a particular blorbo you'll get art anyway if you just show up in my inbox 😭)

I have waited too long — Morwen.

The Myth.

This one was created as the last artwork of 2023.

More of a mythical/symbolic imagery than a realistic illustration.

Morwen.

I get request so, and I replied :)

I hope you will like it.

Mowren in my dream bunad because there´ll go many years before I can get my own - unless I learn how to sew... which I won't.

Morwen - Silmarillion Extravaganza

She may not have actually been an elven witch, but appearances can work in your favour, right? ^^

[a-mountain-hobbit]

You, Silmarillion fan, do you enjoy pain?

Then come to our stream of Děti Húrinovy (Children of Húrin) by Falešné Společenstvo (a czech musical theatre group who has to date 6 full-length Silmarillion musicals). There is loss, grief, pain and anguish in spades, and the occasional unexpected, but very welcome humorous interlude. Also gorgeous music.

"But I don't speak Czech?" Me neither! But luckily for you they have just added english subtitles :D

"Ok so where can I watch this?" The full musical is here on yt, but if you would like to watch it in company, the Last Homely Server is hosting 2 watchparties. See you there!

Morwen and Húrin grieve at the graves of their children

Brodda Meets The Witch

I've finally finished up some projects so I now have time to draw for myself for a while. Of course the first thing I draw is Morwen after a dry spell. This is technically a highly detailed thumbnail but I just wanted to share. :3

Y'know my girl would have absolutely thrown down to the bitter end if Brodda's first reaction wasn't to immediately flee from her.

"But Morwen standing on her threshold heard the echo of that cry in the wooded hills, and she clutched the post of the door so that her fingers were torn."

Morwen X Hurin 💔

I enjoy drawing in this style 🥰

silm fandom can cry about giving women more depth and moral complexity all they want but their idea of "nuance" for female characters is twisting the text to make them into the ones to blame for the male characters' actions. it's not about giving women depth, it's about absolving shitty men bc that's your little meow meow and you don't want him to be the terrible person he canonically is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ "oh tolkien is so sexist" yes he is! and congratulations you're even worse

I think Morwen’s intelligence, cunning and perception are often underestimated; I’m very sleepy right now so this is not as eloquent as I’d like but, during the first chapter, Morwen is consistently shown to be right, or nearly right, regarding her predictions of Beleriand’s future. She correctly states that the girdle of Melian will be one of the longest lasting defenses, she’s correct about the fact that Morgoth won’t be defeated until the Valar intervene.

No wonder Húrin wants to confide in her and seek her advice.,,

She alone detects the difference in the number of Thingol’s guards when Niënor joins them. She’s incredibly shrewd and perceptive (I do think much of this is hyper vigilance)

There’s a lot one can infer too. Morwen survived under extremely bleak conditions for decades in occupied Hithlum. Obviously Aerin’s aid was lifesaving to her* but her survival not to mention planning both Túrin’s escape and her own.

I’ve made so many more definitive posts about Morwen, this one is more just thinking aloud, but I just love Morwen so much. She’s so smart, so cunning. She’s a survivor in every sense.

*just want to make sure I emphasize this, I don’t ever want to minimize Aerin’s aid and the courage and sacrifice of that aid (if my thousands of posts about it aren’t enough indication…)
