Jorah Mormont's wedding portrait with his second wife, Lady Lynesse Hightower
---
"To celebrate his victory (-over the Greyjoys), Robert ordained that a tourney should be held outside Lannisport. It was there I saw Lynesse, a maid half my age.
The first time I beheld her, I thought she was a goddess come to earth, the Maid herself made flesh. Her birth was far above my own. She was the youngest daughter of Lord Leyton Hightower of Oldtown. 
I crowned Lynesse queen of love and beauty, and that very night went to her father and asked for her hand. I was drunk, as much on glory as on wine. By rights I should have gotten a contemptuous refusal, but Lord Leyton accepted my offer. We were married there in Lannisport, and for a fortnight I was the happiest man in the wide world."
-Jorah, ACOK

The wedding dance of Maron Martell and Daenerys Targaryen
(Not that Dany, the other one!)
Daenerys's betrothal to the Prince of Dorne, Prince Maron Martell, was brokered by her brother Daeron as part of the treaty bringing Dorne into the realm of the Iron Throne.
Maron had the Water Gardens built three leagues to the west of Sunspear for his new wife.

Portrait of Lord Tywin of Casterly Rock, Shield of Lannisport, Head of House Lannister 
"When his once-thick golden hair had begun to recede, he had commanded his barber to shave his head; Lord Tywin did not believe in half measures."
I had this idea of Tywin commissioning a formal portrait of himself after he shaved his hair, as a way to assert his new look among people

Some art of Sansa's fantasy of marrying Willas Tyrell, based on this excerpt:
"She pictured the two of them sitting together in a garden with puppies in their laps, or listening to a singer strum upon a lute while they floated down the Mander on a pleasure barge. If I give him sons, he may come to love me. She would name them Eddard and Brandon and Rickon, and raise them all to be as valiant as Ser Loras."
(sansa, a storm of swords)
I do love how every time Sansa thinks of Willas, it always ends in her fantasising about Loras instead. Sorry willy

Queen Rhaella (Mother of Rhaegar, Viserys, & Dany) being dressed after a visit from Aerys
Grim concept, but I had the idea for this drawing from these passages:
"Whenever Aerys gave a man to the flames, Queen Rhaella would have a visitor in the night. The day he burned his mace-and-dagger Hand, Jaime and Jon Darry had stood at guard outside her bedchamber whilst the king took his pleasure. "You're hurting me," they had heard Rhaella cry through the oaken door. "You're hurting me."
"(The maids were) whispering after she was gone. They said the queen looked as if some beast had savaged her, clawing at her thighs and chewing on her breasts"

I'm working my way down the list of requests, I'm sorry for the long wait! I took a lenghty break but now i'm back. Anon, I hope you like it!
Featuring Bran and The Three eyed Crow in the falling dream (Actually one of my favorite chapters!);
A crow was spiraling down with him, just out of reach, following him as he fell. "Help me," he said.
I'm trying, the crow replied. Say, got any corn?
Bran reached into his pocket. When he pulled his hand out, golden kernels slid from between his fingers into the air. They fell with him.
The crow landed on his hand and began to eat.
"Are you really a crow?" Bran asked.
Are you really falling? the crow asked back.
"It's just a dream," Bran said.
Is it? asked the crow.
"I'll wake up when I hit the ground," Bran told the bird.
You'll die when you hit the ground, the crow said. It went back to eating corn.
Bran looked down. He could see mountains now, their peaks white with snow, and the silver thread of rivers in dark woods. He closed his eyes and began to cry.
That won't do any good, the crow said. I told you, the answer is flying, not crying. How hard can it be. I'm doing it.
(bran, a game of thrones)

No one asked or wanted this, but I made it anyway
Flement Brax is the 3rd son of Andros Brax and current heir to Hornvale. When Tyrion meets him his armor is described as;
"Silver armor inlaid with amethysts and a striped purple-and-silver cloak. His horsehead helmet has a spiral horn two feet long, and his shield displays the unicorn of House Brax"
The mental image of the frankly ridiculous horsehead helmet with a unicorn-horn meant i HAD to draw it

Young Stannis (& Robert) with his goshawk Proudwing
"When I was a lad I found an injured goshawk and nursed her back to health. Proudwing, I named her. She would perch on my shoulder and flutter from room to room after me and take food from my hand, but she would not soar. Time and again I would take her hawking, but she never flew higher than the treetops. Robert called her Weakwing. He owned a gyrfalcon named Thunderclap who never missed her strike. One day our great-uncle Ser Harbert told me to try a different bird. I was making a fool of myself with Proudwing, he said, and he was right."

Could you draw Cersei with Tommen after the walk of atonement with the dresses that cover her entire body and the mantle?
also that art of Robert and Mya is perfection!!!
Tumblr media
My first request! Sorry it took so long, but i hope you like it anon!
"The queen was dressed as modestly as any matron, in a dark brown gown that buttoned up to her throat and a hooded green mantle that covered her shaved head. Before her walk she would have flaunted her baldness beneath a golden crown."

Gaemon Palehair being Crowned by Essie and Sylvenna Sand
"-a child who became known as Gaemon Palehair. The son of a whore, this four-year-old boy was claimed to be a bastard of Aegon II (which was not improbable, given the king's bawdy ways in his youth). From his seat in the House of Kisses atop Visenya's Hill, he gathered followers by the thousands and issued a series of edicts.
Gaemon decreed that girls should henceforth be equal with boys in matter of inheritance, that the poor be given bread and beer in times of famine, and that men who had lost limbs in war must afterward be fed and housed by whichever lord they had been fighting for when the loss took place. Gaemon decreed that husbands who beat their wives should themselves be beaten, irrespective of what the wives had done to warrant such chastisement. These edicts were almost certainly the work of a Dornish whore named Sylvenna Sand, reputedly the paramour of the king's mother Essie, if Mushroom is to be believed."

Shireen first contracting Greyscale
So apparently Stannis calling on many healers from Westeros to Essos is a show-specific quote, so unfortunately I don't have any nice book passages to copy and paste here. I like to imagine he was still desperate to save her tho

Thank you thank you for drawing Sansa the correct age. I don’t know why but so many artists and even those artists commissioned by the author himself always draw Sansa as a 20something yr old. For an example look at the official comic books for asoiaf. The scene of Sansa being stripped at court smh. She should like the Sansa you drew with Robb offering Joffrey’s head.
Thank you!! Yes something that bothers me about Sansa’s portrayal is that both in fanart/official artwork people forget just how young she is. . So many Sansa haters seem to forget that she is literally 11 at the start of the books, and in their mind she’s living ASOIAF ”in easy mode” *(Like lol almost every adult male character either sexually harasses her or beats her, I don’t know what kind of mental gymnastics is going on there) 
Ignoring her actual age makes it easier to downplay the terrible things this literal child is going through 🫠

Robb offers Sansa Joffrey's head
Joffrey gave a petulant shrug. "After my name day feast, I'm going to raise a host and kill your brother myself. That's what I'll give you, Lady Sansa. Your brother's head."
A kind of madness took over her then, and she heard herself say, "Maybe my brother will give me your head."
(sansa, a game of thrones)
"-as if some wolf killed your traitor brother. Maybe I'll feed him to wolves after I've caught him. Did I tell you, I intend to challenge him to single combat?"
"I should like to see that, Your Grace." More than you know. Sansa kept her tone cool and polite, yet even so Joffrey's eyes narrowed as he tried to decide whether she was mocking him.

Robert was only 16/17 when he had mya I fear you drew him a little old lol
Yes, I didn’t explain it on the original post but I aged up the characters so the piece takes place slightly before or after the Greyjoy Rebellion. This means in the art Robert is around 27-28 and Mya around 9. In the books Mya only remembers Robert through hazy memories so realistically the last time she saw him she woul’ve been around 3-5
