Snowflakes
Monday, November 17th, 2014
John and Sherlock agreed to a festive winter evening making snowflakes. Unfortunately, they have very different ideas about how to go about that particular activity.
Whose do you think will win out?*
Snowflakes, 7″x5″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper. Get the cheerful holiday card on Etsy!
*I think they’ll do both, first Sherlock’s and then John’s.

How Many Minions
Saturday, November 8th, 2014
How many Minions does it take? Who knows, these six haven’t even managed it yet, though the one on top is shining like a proper Christmas star, having lifted his whole tree of support off the ground below.
You can get these silly Minions on a card at my Etsy shop.

No Hugs
Sunday, November 2nd, 2014
Even though this is technically a holiday card design, I decided to leave the word bubbles off this original so it’s more of a lovely, grumpy portrait of Peter Capaldi’s twelfth Doctor. You can see the cute comic complete with words below. I copied his pose from the first publicity still they gave us of his costume, but used the universal gesture for “no touching” instead.
He is really not into hugging.
You can get these adorable cards on Etsy.

Their Eyes Met
Wednesday, October 15th, 2014
Kim has been a wonderful customer on Etsy for a while, and she decided to take the leap and get me to draw her Sherlock ship for her, Lestrade and Molly. She wanted something funny with the two of them making eyes at each other over a corpse in the morgue, and we gave them each something to be pretending to look at before their eyes meet.
This is what she had to say about her commission:
I found the whole experience really positive and fun. Amy’s been really helpful and enthusiastic about the commission and kept in touch regularly to let me know how it was going. And seeing pics of it in progress has been great – watching it come to life on the paper!
Once my package arrived, I was so thrilled – I love the picture. I think she’s created and captured Molly and Lestrade just right for me. And the little extras in the envelople were wonderful, especially the unexpected and lovely line drawing of Greg tucked in with my art. I think he’s worth framing as well.
All in all, a brilliant and positive experience. And a lovely haul of goodies!
-Kim
Kim has also been kind enough to let me share the art with you, by putting this adorable card up in my shop. She’s pretty awesome, right?

Blankie
Monday, September 29th, 2014
This idea came up in conversation with yet another friend, so I suppose it’s sort of like a fourth sketch prompt. We both liked the idea of Sherlock gloomily buried in his duvet, refusing to come out until a good case comes along. I can only imagine John’s accompanying expression of total exasperation.
The original has been claimed, but you can send this as a card to that one friend that clearly needs to get out more.

Not That Kind of Dwarf
Friday, September 26th, 2014
“Hi Ho, Hi Ho, to Erebor we go!”
“I’m not that kind of dwarf!”
The last of my friends’ silly sketch prompts, though I admit to taking liberties with the intent of “Thorin and his minions.” This is sort of a three-way crossover, with the Disney song sneaking in a third fandom. Because reasons.
You can get Thorin and his Minions on a card at my Etsy shop, to add a bit of surreal pop culture to the day of a very deserving friend.
