Twining Snakes Volant, detail, by Amy Crook

This bright green Moleskine Volant notebook has been hand-decorated with a pair of twining snakes using Sharpie markers. A black snake is biting his own tail in a double-looped ouroboros while his green friend slithers suggestively through his loops.

Moleskine’s colorful notebooks are ideal for customization, turning the high-quality book into a work of art in which to wrap your ideas. The acid-free ruled paper is a creamy ivory color, and a delight to write on. The large size Volants have 96 pages between their soft vinyl covers. The design is in permanent Sharpie, and should last as long as the notebook it’s drawn on.

Consolation Squid

Consolation Squid

Consolation Squid

During the long process of getting Nugget painted, Gretchen managed to break her arm  riding her bike. I actually got to see her at a convention that summer while she was still en-casted, and since the kind concom provided a table of markers for its attendees to decorate Ducks (the con mascot), I decided to give Gretchen a consolation Squid.

We almost colored the whole thing in the pink glitter pen, but it really didn’t want to stick to the cast material, so he ended up with glitter highlights instead. The eyes were gold glitter pen (of course), and the rest is good old Sharpie marker.

Like all cast art, the Consolation Squid was ephemeral, but I thought I’d take a break from the for-sale pile and share him with you today.
