Well, she was a mother of seven so it’s little wonder that she’s often seen as a mother first and foremost. While it’s certainly not the only side there is to her, I chose to show it because it’s definitely the most iconic; the Elvish personification of motherhood.
(Funny how many of my latest drawings have been inspired by the comments people have left me.. that’s the greatest thing about dA in my opinion! )). I wanted her eyes to show a hint of her strength and determination too.. don’t know how well it works, though. 
And I added the baby Maedhros to underline her protective motherly character.. although I’m not sure if I didn’t make the whole thing a tad too twee already.. 
Finally, I fervently deny any notions that drawing stuff like this would indicate I’m feeling broody.. Lies and slander and fallacy, all!

Something about motherhood is so captivating 
Thank you very much for this picture, it is one of my alltime favourites from your gallery. The strenght and determination are outstandingly done - what a contrast to meek and chaste little Findis (although I'm sure she had her own strenght). Honestly, though? You have me speechless. 
It was my pleasure! - and seeing that you friended me made my day.
