love your art, you're currently my favourite asoiaf fan artist! Are you planning on doing all the characters? Would love to see Shiera Seastar, Lyanna Stark, Black Ally and the conquerers!

hii tysm!! I don’t plan on doing everyone. frankly there are just some characters that don’t interest me! Lyanna is a maybe but frankly there are already some really nice drawings of her that idk if I could improve/ add to. I would like to draw Catelyn next, but currently i’m possessed w some oc stuff so who can say when that will happen.

but specifically because I have so many asks in my inbox about shiera… to me she is a bit of a nothing character? she is pretty and she fucks her half brother? so is cersei and she has the guts to go for a full brother‼️ I don’t really have any interest in drawing the characters whose only traits are that they’re pretty

your art has such a homey feel to it. idk how to explain it but it feels like eating warm chocolate chip cookies or dipping grilled cheese in tomato soup or coming home from school and taking a nap on a rainy friday? i don’t know how to articulate it but it feels warm and welcoming. i love it sm

wahhh thank you!!! this is very very sweet and I appreciate it sm

I'm in love with your asoiaf art 💖

Will you ever draw from other books of got universe? Like fire and blood or dunk and egg?

I have not read dunk and egg yet! maybe I will someday but as of rn I have a few books on my shelf i’m working through and many more on my tbr. as for f&b, I enjoy it from a world building perspective, but I’m not particularly attached to any of the characters. that’s not to say never, but as of rn I’m definitely more interested in the main series

do you block anyone that doesn’t like dany

no I do not but I block liberally for other things

Your Jon and Dany have such similar expressions I love it so much. Like what if you were a teenager and suffering more that Jesus and you had various magic companions AND you were a part of a prophecy. Like what then. Anyways I love them and your art so much,, <3

I forget every drawing i’ve done as soon as I finish it so I had to go back and check but you’re right. thank you for this. extremely funny and my new fav analysis

I don’t like my old dany art anymore so it was time for a new one… this time featuring her dragons <3 if they look bad I’m sorry I literally haven’t drawn a dragon since following step-by-steps in elementary school

'tolerating' no. I am savouring these. I can't believe you drew all those flowers, they look amazing, the way the colours of the figures are is so wonderful...! if you post more oc stuff I'd definitely b interested!! no pressure obvs obvs

thank u!!! mwah mwah. unfortunately unless I make something I am particularly proud of I will probably keep my oc stuff off of tumblr i think. I like to be able to delete things when I suddenly decide I hate them <3 that has been my only gripe w tumblr I have to see art I don’t like anymore floating around forever. c’est la vie

I do have a tiny IG (same username) that I post my ocs and sketches on. I don’t promo it bc I mostly post there for friends and mutuals but that is the place to find my original stuff and glimpse into my wonderful world of deranged ocs ^-^

are you into any other fandoms, other than asoiaf? Adore your art, would love to see Tom Riddle in your style

you will never get harry potter fanart out of me. please read another book this isn’t your heart

Hello :) I really like your earthsea art, can I ask what inspired the fashion style of the characters? The clothes of earthsea aren’t generally described in detail, but I LOVE the way these look, they fit the feeling of the world perfectly.

hi!! tysm!! My Earthsea stuff so far has been mostly vibes based unfortunately, so i have no specific references to point you to… For Ged, I thought I it was important that his clothing be comfortable, practical, and humble but not ragged. he’s a powerful wizard, but he’s not showy, so his robes are colorful, but not opulent. I also considered what would look cool flowing in the wind while sailing on lookfar…

for Tenar, I started with the (obvious) base of the black robes. I figured they should be very basic because they’re mentioned making their own clothes. HOWEVER, Tenar is priestess of the Nameless One and thus higher status than her peers, so I wanted her to have more than just a plain robe. There are some small elements on the trim of her robe, and she has a decorative shawl which takes extra labor to make. even so, her belt is still only a rope. They are not living luxuriously.

I hope that makes sense!! I also was just influenced by what is fun for me to draw, and that happens to be loose and layered clothing ! :)

I don’t usually share my oc stuff on tumblr but I like this one and I worked hard on it so I am going to anyways <3

cersei burns the tower of the hand

Tenar <3 my friend promised me a strangegirl protagonist in the Tombs of Atuan and I was not disappointed

hi!! i am SO obsessed with your asoiaf book art. i was wondering if you would ever do a sketch of the martells/sand snakes! i would absolutely love to see them in your style

hi!! this is rusty bc i’ve been on break/ drawing some personal work but here are a few of the sand snakes! ^-^

your recent jb‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️ thank you for the food‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

thank YOU fellow jb warrior ‼️🫡

i don't know if it's already your birthday but happy birthday and your art is one of the most beautiful and heartwarming things i discovered this year, i simply adore your style!🩵🩵🩵✨🌱

thank you sm!!! mwah!! my bday was a week ago but I haven’t been able to update my bio bc I’m without a computer and mobile will mess up the formatting -_-

a knight and his lady

The sketchy texture of your work is weirdly calming. I think it’s the subtle hint of that nostalgic pencil feel. I think it adds to the atmosphere a lot!

thank you!! the texture I use came a bit out of necessity :) I found with softer, more precise brushes I was focusing way too much on tiny, hardly visible details and really missing the forest for the trees.

as a slav your interpretation of asoiaf fashion is soooooo beautiful and cool and fitting and your style does slav inspired clothing so much justice. your art is genuinely a bowl of warm soup to my soul and soft cotton fabric to my skin. your mind and skill ❤ hope all is well

thank u SOO much this is so sweet and lovely :’) mwah mwah <33

i am IN LOVE with you art. i love how you draw faces and the clothing is just so good. would you ever draw alicent hightower or just any hightowers in general?

tysm!!! <333

I have gotten a few reqs I think for various hotd characters and while I won’t say I will never draw them, as of rn I don’t have any plans. the f&b /hotd characters do not grab me quite like the main series does… but perhaps someday I can do some batch portraits or something ! :)

(also the thought of having to work backwards to figure out what id imagine the fashions during the Dance would look like makes my brain explode ourrgh )

i genuinely GENUINELY haven't seen art as good as urs. i'm so so deeply in love with your asoiaf drawings dear lord they evoke something primal within me

thank you sm!!!! this is so kind <333

some more headshots! this time the askers were all anons

I finally read A Wizard of Earthsea for one of my friends so here is a drawing of sweet Ged <3

I just found your art and I must tell you that I am totally in love, it is simply beautiful and precious. Your talent is incredible! ❤️❤️❤️

Could you comment on the clothes you use for jon? I never saw him represented that way and now I've fallen in love! Thanks for share. If you ever need to open commissions, I'll be happy to commission you!

hi ! tysm :) I am happy to share, but it should be noted that I am definitely not a fashion history expert. I tend to pull from fashions in the medieval era, typically in the kievan rus/old russia region. I also sometimes draw from Ivan Biliban and similar illustrators and the fashions they use to depict Russian fairy tales.

Jon’s coat is pretty simple. it’s nice enough to be fur lined, but not nice enough to have any sort of decorative elements. His hat (I think) is slightly post-medieval, but I liked the silhouette. it felt dramatic enough for a lord commander without being too extravagant, and thought it would definitely come in handy for keeping warm at the wall. Any time I’m illustrating someone in the North, I try to cram in a bunch of furs so they’re not freezing. Also his sheath is taken from Link’s sheath for the master sword bc I couldn’t find one for the back that I liked lol

At the end of the day it’s a fantasy, and if george is going to insist on everyone having long flowy hair, I’m not going to kill myself with making everything ELSE 100% accurate. I stay silly :3

Everytime you post new art i have to look through the old ones again and god!! I notice little details everytime and it's just so good. Anyways I hope you have a nice day

tysm!! that is very kind :) there are drawings I don’t like as much anymore but overall I have had sm fun drawing asoiaf stuff and there are a lot that i DO like which is a win for me 💪 and I feel like I have barely scratched the surface of all there is to draw in the books

Have you heard of the YouTube channel Alt Shift X? They’re a video essay channel that mainly cover ASOIAF and it’s theories.

I have seen the channel but I have not ever watched anything from it I think? I don’t get much asoiaf content recommended to me on youtube. and venturing outside of the tumblr fandom scares me. there are redditors out there….

I would destroy to see some standalone art of Jon Snow (if you want)- your art style is so beautiful.

I WILL! >:) I actually already had a wip going but literally just last night I discovered some art of him that was uncannily similar… so I’m scrapping and starting over for the sake of not looking like I copied the other artist </3 but rest assured he will show up eventually

Could you draw Patchface please? Your art is incredible and I think he’s the scariest character in asoiaf 😵‍💫

SUCH an excellent suggestion.. drawing patchface hadn’t even crossed my mind but this was a really fun challenge :)

tommen is going to be FINE. don’t even worry.
