Are there drawings of Tehamin from the novel?
Yes! I don't have access to all versions of all novels so this is not going to be comprehensive, but here are some images. There are a few novel spoilers in here, though I won't go into detail about anything.

Innocentis lays eyes on Tahamenay for for first time, Book 1, illustration by Shinobu Tanno.

Tahamenay with Innocentis in one of the palace courtyards, Book 1, illustration by Yoshitaka Amano.

Seated on a wicker chair inside the glass greenhouse looking at the laleh (tulips), Book 2. As you can see, Amano's Tahamenay has black hair as is consistent with novel canon.
'The queen looked younger than her thirty-six years, or to be more precise, hers was an ageless beauty. Her raven hair, jet-black eyes, and ivory skin glimmered all the more for the jewels and silks adorning her.' (Book 1, Chapter 3, part ii)
Tumblr media
Arslan and Tahamenay meet, Book 7. Yoshitaka Amano's work again.
Tumblr media
I know I shared this before in the post about Layla but I'm including it here too for completion. Tahamenay jumps between Layla and Gieve in Book 12, illustration by Shinobu Tanno.
Tumblr media
Yamada Akihiro's colour illustration of Tahamenay on the cover of Book 12. That's all I've got, though if anyone has other images to add please do so!

How about Yamada Akihiro? Their style has become very distinct over time.
I've been looking forward to answering this one but I had to wait until I had access to a computer again.
You're kind of right anon, but semantically: Yamada Akihiro's artwork has ALWAYS been very distinct. I'd argue that Akihiro has the most unique artwork of any FEH artist in the game. He's an old-school artist, and I mean that absolutely positively. It feels to me like he has more... I don't know if integrity is the word, but he approaches FEH art with a much higher standard than I've seen from any other FEH artist (not to insult the other FEH artists who do great art). He's only drawn seven characters, but each character is very visually different; he's absolutely skilled in drawing young, old, male, and female characters as seen with haggard old Bantu to fair-faced Mila. Most of the fanbase is really put-off by his style, sadly, but I honestly love it. Akihiro's the only artist who has drawn completely individual art for each phase of a FEH character; none of his characters' portraits are the same to each other, and I find that incredible. His details on characters like clothing, scales, armor, etc, is balls to the wall insane and again, his coloring style is like nothing else in the game.
However, there is a problem with a lot of his art that gets a little distracting sometimes. His anatomy is... funky.
You can see the most egregious examples with Ogma's arms:

Mila's hands

And Gatekeeper's legs:

Again, this is probably the only real flaw in Akihiro's work because in every other field he absolutely destroys it. But it is quite glaringly noticeable. I know that a rule of drawing is that anatomy doesn't have to be absolute if you're trying to pursue dynamic posing or personality shown by a character's body physique. But yeah.
ANYWAYS, Akihiro is very much a 9.99999999/10 artist. I'm incredibly glad they chose him to draw Gatekeeper as he really seemed to have fun with it and gave Gatekeeper such fun artwork. I'd argue we need to see EVEN MORE characters drawn by Akihiro.

Why are illustrations for novels different? How many artists did this story?
There's been three different illustrators for the Japanese releases of the novels. They were first illustrated by Yoshitaka Amano; you can see his artwork for novels 1-10, after which the publisher changed from Kadokawa Bunko to Kappa Novels. Shinobu Tanno took over with the illustrations from this point (and also illustrated the earlier books for their editions released with this new publisher). Finally, the Kobunsha Bunko release of the series features illustrations by Yamada Akihiro.

also the female kirin having earings makes no sense because why would a kirin intentionally put themselves near blood even if it's their own
