Cthulhu Dreams of Love
Tuesday, January 10th, 2012
Cthulhu Dreams of Love by Amy Crook, $69
Cthulhu gets a Valentine! Of course his love-dreams could be for a birthday, anniversary or just because, but it’s that season and I drew him with that in mind.
That said, my favorite part is the button-eyed Hound of Tindalos plush toy. He’s holding its paw! Aww, Cthulhu, we never knew you were such a softie.
Cthulhu Dreams of Love, 5″x7″ pen and ink and Copic markers on paper, $69 with free shipping. Or visit my Etsy Shop to pick him up on a card!

Cthulhu with a Kitten doodle

Cthulhu with a Kitten sketch by Amy Crook
Another little Coloring Book doodle! Cthulhu is quite dubious that he’s not supposed to eat the kitten, but I’m sure he’ll come around.
Happy New Year!

Old-Fashioned Ornaments, set 2

Old-Fashioned Ornaments, set 2, by Amy Crook
Pardon the terrible photography, I’ll try to take a better one when the sun’s back up. I finally managed to assemble my second set of old-fashioned paper ornaments, this one with slightly different art. I kept the star but hung it at a different angle, and then made Cthulhu himself and an Elder Sign (Lovecraft style) to go with it.
These ornaments are a huge pain to make, but it’s almost fun in that way where it appeals to my meticulous nature, so I might make a few extra sets next year. We’ll see!

Cuppa Shoggoth?

Cuppa Shoggoth? sketch by Amy Crook
I’m still not feeling well, so I’ll just let this little coloring book doodle (that is, one of the sketches I usually draw in the inside front cover whenever someone buys a Cthulhu Coloring Book or Monster Heart Coloring Book) speak for itself.
Or something.

SnowCthulhu

SnowCthulhu by Amy Crook, $222
It’s a snowman! It’s Cthulhu! It’s… SnowCthulhu!
Tiny, delicate pen work makes up the stick tentacles, arms and wings. This demanded careful, slightly messy watercolors to paint in the sticks and blue snowy shadows on him. His coal-black eyes have little hints of blue and purple in them just like real coal. Basically, he’s just awesome.
He may or may not become a holiday card this year, but he’ll definitely star in next year’s lineup. I was just feeling seasonal! And, you know, Lovecraftian. Because Christmas and unspeakable horrors just go together.
SnowCthulhu, 7″x5″ mixed media on paper, $222 with free shipping.

Gift Tags

Holiday Gift Tags by Amy Crook, $9.99 a pack
A couple of people asked me about gift tags this year, so I took 5 of my favorite holiday cards and turned them into tags! They’re printed on parchment cardstock, with a hole punched for easy attaching. 15 cards in a pack, either all one thing or an assortment of 3 each, and shipping’s free.
You can pick them up at my Etsy shop, or if you’re local The Book Shop in Hayward, CA is carrying a few packs. Go give them some love — they’ve got Coloring Books, too!

Cthulhu’s Gift

Cthulhu's Gift by Amy Crook, $69
I’ve been working on holiday cards again this week, and Cthulhu really wants you to like his gift. I decided to make a rather generic gift for the original, and then I drew a page of holiday dingbats — including a delightfully gruesome spike bow of a sort I’ve actually bought and put on gifts myself (minus the blood).
Cthulhu’s Gift, 5″x7″ pen and ink and Copic markers on paper, $69 with free shipping.
Cthulhu's Holiday Gift by Amy Crook
The original is, of course, the first version, since this one exists courtesy of Photoshop, but I find I’m rather fond of his baubles. I want a tentacle glass ornament!
This is what he looks like in a frame, though the original won’t be framed unless the buyer requests it for an additional fee.
