Artist's Description:

Lúthien (named Tinúviel by her lover, Beren, meaning nightingale) was described by Tolkien as "the most beautiful of all the Children of Ilúvatar. Blue was her raiment as the unclouded heaven, but her eyes were grey as the starlit evening [...] her hair was dark as the shadows of twilight. As the light upon the leaves of trees, as the voice of clear waters, as the stars above the mists of the world, such was her glory and her loveliness; and in her face was a shining light."
~The Silmarillion~

I wanted to make Lúthien look as a real person, not only as a book character, and I thought suicide-stock was the perfect model. isn't she?
