Marc Simonetti, hands down.

The covers for the book in Brazilian simply instill awe.

The Wall (New Brazilian cover of AGOT):

Dragonstone (Cover of ACOK in Brazilian, I don't know if this one is new or the old. It seems the books got new covers, as good as the old ones):

Dunk and Egg (Mystery Knight cover in Brazilian):

This Stannis artwork is awesome. Period.

By a friend of yours?  Because it's not that good.  Hands are poorly painted, appear way to flat.  Pose is lifeless and unrealistic.  Same flesh tone appears to be used everywhere, the skin should be subtly different colors where it is thicker and thinner.  Very poor texturing on the clothing.  Why is Stannis wearing a bracer and armor in the Map Room?  Why does the window have bricks around it, when Dragonstone is made of molded stone?  

It's not the worst painting I've seen, but awesome is not the word I would use.  Amateurish is more like it.

No artists from the series? This seems like a thread for artwork inspired by the series. My favorite artwork from the series comes from the House of Black and White.

this is the book forum. :)

I know, was being facetious :D

I was surprised to find on AWOIAF under the Culture tab titled 'Art, culture & religion' that there is no mention of artists or sculptors. If you want to stretch it further, no musicians, minstrels either.

- No, it's not by a friend of mine.

- Where do hands appear way too flat? I've stared at the draw for like 10 minutes and didn't noticed anything "too flat" at all.

- What is unrealistic? What was the pose supposed to be like, then?

- "The flesh tone should be subtly different colors where is thicker and thinner". What? No, it shouldn't. My hands are thin and there isn't a different tone on them, and i'm real person, you know?

- Either i'm used to see lame draws or the texturing on the clothing is actually pretty good.

- I don't know, because he is at war?

- Where is it said that the whole Dragonstone is made of molded stone?

- This "amateurish" artist make artworks for a company of trading card games.

Eleven years old...? Or is it a possibly reunion with Nymeria?

I don't think it's set in any specific moment in the series. I like it because it's clean and simple yet pretty.

Compared to the stuff posted before, it was pretty bad.  But some of the stuff posted after (that Arya is terrible) it makes it look almost good.
