February 2025 Patron Sketches

Thursday, April 3rd, 2025

Poddleston at came out and helped awhile with this giant set of 10.

10 sketch cards by Amy Crook

 

  • Amy B asked for something joyful and gets a grey kitty in a Tater Tot sort of pose, which is something that sure brings me joy, anyway
  • Eric prompted “wonder” and I thought this kind of tarot-Fool wanderer wondering about life was a neat response to it (sold)
  • Molly wanted a praying animal and gets a polar bear
  • Jefferson prompted “R is for R’lyeh” and gets a weird, mossy underwater city with a hidden R in it (sold)
  • SaraBeth wanted Love Wins ft. Gritty, and while I didn’t rainbow it up, the sentiment is there (sold)
  • Kelly wanted, and got, a swan, easy peasy lemon squeezy (sold)
  • Rey prompted “napping dad” and got, well, this poor Dad (sold)
  • Andria wanted something cheering for grad school, and I have been informed that surprise food is always cheering when you’re a grad student, especially with bonus alcohol
  • Rebecca S wanted something cosy and gets a little red dragon today, along with a cup of tea to warm him (sold)
  • Amber wanted coffee, and this is as close as I can get to making her a cup (sold)

December 2024 Sketch Cards

Tuesday, January 28th, 2025

How is January almost over? The passage of time is a continued problem. I have two! Two sets of sketch cards for you! Ah-ah-ah-aah! [insert Count von Count here]

6 moon phase sketch cards by Amy Crook

Above, I did a set of six moon phases because I always need extras for my patreon goodie packets. These were fun to experiment with the clouds on each, so they feel connected but not too samey.

6 sketch cards by Amy Crook

Here are everyone’s actual sketch requests from last month! And that wraps up the whole year, which is wild.

  • Jefferson asked for ninja espresso and got an espresso ninja (sold)
  • Rebecca S wanted a hockey boy and I paid homage to her team, the Krakens (sold)
  • Amy B asked for a skunk
  • SaraBeth wanted flight or freedom, and apparently my brain went the easy route with this bird escaping its cage (sold)
  • Eric asked for “Captain Negasonic Human Torch” because he’s a troll, but I had fun with it
  • Kelly wanted a goth to interpret “red” so of course it’s bloody bones (sold)

November 2024 Patron Sketches

Saturday, January 4th, 2025

I’m gonna have some actual full-size art to show y’all pretty soon, but for now here’s another batch of sketch cards from Patreon!

9 sketch cards by Amy Crook

  • Jefferson asked for, “That trick never works!” and gets a crow peeking out of an orange magician’s top hat. (sold)
  • Amy B wanted a cosy mole in a waistcoat, and I gave him a cup of tea and a jaunty bowler hat, which has somehow made him look like a Loony Tunes villain, or at least a henchmole. (sold)
  • Kelly wanted autumn/fall, and having a leaf to do later, I decided on this cosy purrito objecting to the changing weather. I think autumn was about 11 seconds long this year, so my mood has gone straight to winter, sorry! (sold)
  • This crow is the first of three bonus cards! I did some gloomy, rainy autumn/winter backgrounds and then let myself play. (nfs)
  • Bonus Crow the Second, with a trio and a tree.
  • Bonus Crow the Third, just one jaunty corvid and a different tree.
  • SaraBeth asked for Solidarity and gets some Pride-themed word art. (sold)
  • Eric wanted a favorite cup of tea, and this is one of my favorite impractical teacups that I own, filled with sweet, milky Earl Grey. (sold)
  • Andria asked for the perfect autumn leaf, and I think doing this first stole all of my fall feeling, lol. (sold)

A lovely end to the year, all watercolors and my fancy new pencils!

October 2024 Patron Sketches

Wednesday, December 4th, 2024

I ended up doing these guys a little late for the inevitable holiday cold reasons, but I had a really fun mix of prompts this time, at least!

7 sketch cards by Amy Crook in various media

  • Nick asked for “kissmas” after some book he likes, and gets the blorbos from my upcoming Goblin Market book instead. Sorry not sorry.
  • Andria wanted a confused jack-o-lantern.
  • Eric asked for “The Ballad” and I had fun fading this out on the left like the world in Coraline when she tries to walk away and instead walks around. (sold)
  • Kelly wanted hellfire, so I painted some fun flames and added a few lost souls for ambience. (sold)
  • SaraBeth asked for Audrey II from Little Shop of Horrors, and I went for the smaller version because it’s just cuter. (sold)
  • Amy B wanted an autumnal Pod, and in autumn all Pod wants is warms.
  • Rebecca W said of course she still loves Pod (who was the cat on that post, iirc) and so I experimented a little with light and form and color for her. (sold)

September 2024 Patron Sketches

Saturday, November 2nd, 2024

Patron sketches again! I also did Drawtober, but I gave myself a mandate to just do pencil sketches in a notebook, and mostly concentrate on figure drawing, so I won’t be reposting those here. They’re free to view on Patreon, though!

8 sketch cards by Amy Crook

Eight cards for six requests, and on time, too!

  • Andria asked for birthday level-ups, and got this absolutely not from Mario 1up shroom
  • Kelly prompted “raindrops and rainbows” and I feel like this was a predictable sort of result (sold)
  • Jefferson wanted “endless swearing” and that much grawlix is quite the challenge to write! (sold)
  • Kitty Nebula just because
  • Eric wanted Dragon Fireworks and I had fun with it (sold)
  • another just because….falling stars, fireflies in the rain, who knows? (sold)
  • Amy B wanted good birthday vibes, so these cuties are for her
  • and last but absolutely not least, SaraBeth wanted Pod as Beetlejuice, and while Poddlejuice refused to wake up for his cameo, he did agree to be in the sketch (sold)

August 2024 Patreon Sketches

Wednesday, October 9th, 2024

As usual, these were requested in August, sketched in September, and are being shared here a little after that! I still have my 100 Cats project to share with y’all, but I haven’t yet figured out what format I want to use for the posts (and how much Photoshopping it will require, sigh).

8 sketch cards by Amy Crook

  • Nick and Andria both wanted coziness, so the napping purrito and autumn opossum are for them.
  • SaraBeth asked for two of my OCs, Andy and Horace. Andy is a weird shadow monster who is in full muppet mode here, lol. (sold)
  • Jefferson wanted a Galaxy Cake, ironically not the cake I had for my birthday this year. (sold)
  • Eric asked for egrets. No regrets, only egrets. (sold)
  • Kelly asked for a phoenix and got this sparkly boyo. (sold)
  • Amber wanted Calvin & Hobbes, which I am always happy to deliver. (sold)
  • I got another new pack of cool pencils and experimented with them to draw weird fire.
  • Amy B wanted a batcat for the season! (sold)
