George RR Martin Sketches Myself

George RR Martin

The inspiration for this site is George R R Martin's masterpiece, "A Song of Ice and Fire".
  • There are presently three books published: "A Game of Thrones", "A Clash of Kings" and "A Storm of Swords". The fourth book in the series. "A Feast for Crows" will be published in late 2004. Martin's writing stands out for its gritty realism, his extraordinary breadth and detail in world-building, and the deep, involved characterisation that he gives to its inhabitants.
  • Magical elements in the books are subtle, and behind the scenes, allowing the plotting, back-stabbing, and warring of the main characters take centre-stage.
  • I believe that the series is destined to become a classic, and Martin is without doubt the best fantasy author alive! For more information, please visit the sites in my links page!

"Greywater watch" is named after the castle of House Reed.

  • In the book, the POV of Brandon Stark, and his exploits with Jojen and Meera Reed, was my favourite narrative thread.
  • The front-page picture shows the story of the Knight of the Laughing Tree, which was told by Meera along their way to the Wall. Serious debates are still ongoing on who the Knight really is!
 

Sketches

The sketches are some of the imagined scenes from the series. Each picture has a paragraph on where it came from the series, and another on some of the artistic license that I took. Please let me know if you see any factual inaccuracies, as I would like to correct them and re-post the pictures.

Do leave a note on my guest-book; encouragement is always welcome!

Really interested in the landscapes and buildings of Westeros and surrounding lands. I feel that landscapes are more objective than portraits, although I'm beginning to dabble in some action scenes.


Myself
