1. Characters/Pairing/Other Subject: Lincoln & Octavia
Content Notes/Warnings: none
Medium: Drawing
Artist on DW/LJ: n/a
Artist Website/Gallery: brandiwine24
Why this piece is awesome: The detail on this is amazing. It's a scene from the show of two characters who are currently enemies (Octavia's wounded, hence the carrying) and the piece without the scenery really focuses on the two of them. I also really love how the artist does hair.

Why this piece is awesome: This is an incredible portrait of a contemplative Anya. The colors especially give the painting and Anya in it a warm glow that really brings it to life.

3. Characters/Pairing/Other Subject: Murphy and Bellamy
Content Notes/Warnings: none
Medium: Drawing
Artist on DW/LJ: n/a
Artist Website/Gallery: inkyako
Why this piece is awesome: This piece can be read as slash or gen, but either way it hits my buttons of two people who used to be friends, had a massive betrayal, and then work through it to become friends again. I love the harsh lines and the way that Murphy, whose face you see, is really holding onto Bellamy. Murphy really needs a hug and this piece captures that.

4. Characters/Pairing/Other Subject: Clarke/Lexa
Content Notes/Warnings: none
Medium: digital
Artist on DW/LJ: n/a
Artist Website/Gallery: arniearns16 and spider999now
Why this piece is awesome: I love the color in this piece. It's set in blue which gives the whole thing a very soft, night feel that gives Clarke and Lexa sharing a moment a very intimate feel.
Link: Clarke and Lexa

5. Characters/Pairing/Other Subject: Clarke
Content Notes/Warnings: blood, spoilers for season 2 finale
Medium: Drawing
Artist on DW/LJ: n/a
Artist Website/Gallery: walk21miles
Why this piece is awesome: This is a semi-abstract piece, in that it's about Clarke, but focuses on different parts of her. You don't see her face, but the artist has included her hands, her lower body in profile with a weapon, the back of her head approaching a door that she can't walk back out of. It's looking at the internal consequences of her actions, hard lines and spare colors that I think works pretty well.
Link: Clarke at the end of it all

In August I did recs for fanart_recs  community. I've been doing one a week (and continuing with September) so I figured I'd post the ones I already did. I've been pulling these from the weekly round-up so you may have seen them already.


Characters/Pairing/Other Subject: Clarke Griffin

Why this piece is awesome: This is a bold portrait of Clarke, leader of the the people who fell from the sky dressed in the gear and warpaint of the Grounders. I love the color, and the mixing of themes of the sky people becoming one with the people they were originally enemies with.

Characters/Pairing/Other Subject: Octavia Blake

Medium: Drawing/digital

Why this piece is awesome: The black and white drawing is heavily stylized, and fairly simple. I love it because it shows strong contrasts while still capturing the essence of who Octavia becomes. The text is in Trigedasleng and means "Get smacked down, get up again another time."

Artist Website/Gallery: Deviant Art Gallery
Why this piece is awesome: I like this portrait because it's so realistic. You can see the character behind the eyes, captured in a moment.

Characters/Pairing/Other Subject: Lexa
Content Notes/Warnings: none
Medium: Pencil drawing
Artist on DW/LJ: n/a rosabelledraws
Artist Website/Gallery: Rosabelledraws at Deviant Art
Why this piece is awesome: This is a portrait of the grounder Commander Lexa which just blew me away when I saw it. The detail is incredible, capturing the layers here of warpaint, dirt, and blood. I love that it's black and white, but still feels like the character is just waiting to walk to life.
Link: Commander Lexa

I've been meaning to do this for a while. Canon setting fic recs!

Excuse Me, That's Mr. Princess To You by Frea_O
Bellamy/Clarke
Rating: pg-13
Warnings: none
A friends to lovers, must get married for an alliance story that is charming and upbeat, and also features dancing. Set with season 2 characters but not part of the canon storyline.

15 Ways to Build a Life by lelwry
Gen
Rating: pg
Warnings: none
Set immediately after season 2 and series of short scenes in Camp Jaha. Lovely character interactions, and features Lincoln.

They found a steeple and tore up the wood by someofusare
Gen with Abby/Marcus undertones
Rating: pg
Warnings: none
Character study, spoilers for both seasons, but really it's a look at Abby and where she comes from, growing up on the Ark and now on the ground. Lovely.

The Scars that Show by ChancellorGriffin
Abby/Marcus and Bellamy/Clarke
Rating: R
Warnings: none
Another post-season 2 fic, in which Marcus and Bellamy bond over the Griffin women they love but can't have (at the moment) while the Arker figure out how to survive in a post-Mt. Weather world. Shippy through great Marcus and Bellamy conversations.

Tales of Brave Ulysses by Lila82
Gen, Bellamy focus
Rating: pg-13
Warnings: none
Set post-season 2. In which Bellamy deals after Clarke leaves, trying to take care of everyone, and lead without his partner, as they negotiate with grounders and prepare for winter. Nice character work, especially among the delinquents.
