I love it! Great job, Kate! It does my heart good to know @kimberlite8 gifted you with a copy. The prints are rare indeed.

Welp, I just couldn’t find a decent frame that wasn’t outrageously expensive but I couldn’t bear to let it sit in the tube a minute longer soooo we improvised! ☺️

Thanks again to @kimberlite8 for this gorgeous print of what is basically the Holy Grail of Sandor art!!! 💛💛💛

Touch of Fire by Bubug

An utterly amazing picture. It’s giving me all the inspirations. Link to this artist below!

What's your favourite fanart of Sandor and Sansa? If you could only choose one for each?

Oh, don’t make me make decisions like this…  I would say my favorite Sansan pieces are a tie between Bubug’s I Could Keep You Safe (got a framed print of this one) and The Stranger’s Kiss by Indiron (nsfw).

Individual pieces would be Sandor Clegane by bubug and The Red Keep Years:  Sansa by Irakli Nadar (nsfw).  The latter is just both so vulnerable and defiant.

A Clash of Kings - Sansa III

“Leave her face,” Joffrey commanded. “I like her pretty.”

Boros slammed a fist into Sansa’s belly, driving the air out of her. When she doubled over, the knight grabbed her hair and drew his sword, and for one hideous instant she was certain he meant to open her throat. As he laid the flat of the blade across her thighs, she thought her legs might break from the force of the blow. Sansa screamed. Tears welled in her eyes. It will be over soon. She soon lost count of the blows.

“Enough,” she heard the Hound rasp.

“No it isn’t,” the king replied. “Boros, make her naked.”

Boros shoved a meaty hand down the front of Sansa’s bodice and gave a hard yank. The silk came tearing away, baring her to the waist. Sansa covered her breasts with her hands. She could hear sniggers, far off and cruel. “Beat her bloody,” Joffrey said, “we’ll see how her brother fancies—”

“What is the meaning of this?”

The Imp’s voice cracked like a whip, and suddenly Sansa was free. She stumbled to her knees, arms crossed over her chest, her breath ragged. “Is this your notion of chivalry, Ser Boros?” Tyrion Lannister demanded angrily. His pet sellsword stood with him, and one of his wildlings, the one with the burned eye. “What sort of knight beats helpless maids?”

“The sort who serves his king, Imp.” Ser Boros raised his sword, and Ser Meryn stepped up beside him, his blade scraping clear of its scabbard.

“Careful with those,” warned the dwarf’s sellsword. “You don’t want to get blood all over those pretty white cloaks.”

“Someone give the girl something to cover herself with,” the Imp said.

Sandor Clegane unfastened his cloak and tossed it at her. Sansa clutched it against her chest, fists bunched hard in the white wool. The coarse weave was scratchy against her skin, but no velvet had ever felt so fine.”

Thank you so much for your generosity, @kimberlite8​, and sharing this beautiful artwork with the Sansan fandom in the spirit of the season! You are a lovely soul and deserve all the good things. :) MWUAH!

As usual, Bubug just killed it! We are so lucky to have such an incredible artist in the fandom. I’m speechless at how gorgeous this is! Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Happy Yule, happy solstice and happy Christmas, Sansan fandom! This is the holiday card I commissioned from Bubug. I sent out 51 cards this year to Sansan fandom across the Americas, Europe, India and Australia. Hope you enjoy receiving yours and it gave you the sense of community that it gave me.

I'm looking forward to the end of the Trump presidency, the rollout of the COVID vaccine and the return to normalcy. Wishing you all safety, the lessening of struggle and a little bit of light as we transition to 2021.

Cover art for The Sword in the Darkness

First off, thank you to @thefeatherofhope for helping to fund this project. We have been trying to make some artwork happen for probably close to a year now. At least 9 months.   . . look, it’s been a long time people! And here we are. If she had not helped out financially, this would not exist. Without her support as a friend I would not have been able to make this dream come true. 

A second thank you to the supremely talented Bubug for all the time, effort, and emails she put into this project, for reading the entire story thus far, and for giving me options to choose from and never giving up until it was just right.  Her work gives me old-world, fairy-tale vibes that fit perfectly with this story. I’m pretty sure if you’re a Sandor or Sansan fan you know her work, but on the off chance you haven’t discovered her yet, here is a link to her DeviantArt account.

My story, The Sword in the Darkness, can be found only on AO3. 14 chapters in thus far and more to come. Please click here for the link. 

And a final thank you to @devilsbastion for the quick and constructive beta skills. This story is all shiny and pretty because she helps with the polishing. (Bruh, you’re the best)

hey @allthedances ...just wanted to say thanks again for these two bad boys...finally got them framed (though this picture doesn’t do them justice at all, there’s hints of red and green in the frames that really ties them together) and i can’t stop staring at them...they have those eyes that just follow you around the room. THANK YOU for your generosity! (Bubug prints are better than owning the Mona Lisa to me.)

Never get tired of seeing this

Is there any subtle SanSan Art? I can’t find anything :(

Well, if by subtle you're referring to artwork that doesn't have nudity, sexual situations or kissing, there's an abundance. I’ve tagged this and will make future postunder the tag #subtlesansan for those who prefer sansan art without the lemons.

So I went on dragons-daughter-blog (the one who stole Melina's art) and I saw a Sansan art cropped and posted there too-without the artist's signature. The artist is bubug. If there's any Sansan fans maybe they could check this issue or report it if dragons-daughter-blog has stolen that art in question too. Seems like a serial offender.

Hi Nonny,

I’ll tag this sansan so hopefully they will see it — but I don’t have much to go on (the art, or even the blogger anymore because I blocked her dumbass).

STEALING ART IS A BIG NO-NO … ALWAYS REBLOG. NEVER REPOST UNLESS LINKING TO THE ACTUAL ARTIST.
