Maybe (although I don't know where you get the artisan bit from), but we don't see that her famous influence on Feanor ever had much effect.
Whereas Galadriel, a match for both the loremasters and athletes of the Eldar in her youth, who had great Feanaro himself smitten with her beauty but didn't act like a groupie around him, while on the other hand being one of the few Elves who ever were unselfishly friendly with Dwarves, etc. etc., is what in your book?
