Inktober 2018: Week 1
Tuesday, October 16th, 2018
Autumn winds are blowing and fire season is almost over, which means not only October, Halloween, and Pumpkin Spice, but Inktober! I’m doing one ink drawing per day all month, pulling from a number of prompt lists. This year I’m doing everything in the Artist’s Trading Card size of 3.5″x2.5″ and sticking to black and white with the occasional cheat of grey.
Inktober 1: Poisonous
Inktober 2: Too Early for Jeff
Inktober 3: Crows
Inktober 4: Spite for Corinne
Inktober 5: Death
Inktober 6: Sepioid for Blaine
yes, we know it’s spelled wrong
Inktober 7: Exhausted

Sardines

Sardines, 10″x8″ ink and watercolor on Arches cover buff paper
Monterey Bay Aquarium has a room where you can stand and watch sardines endlessly dance in circles around you, living flashes of silver in a meditative display.
The thick, buff-colored paper supports a brilliant turquoise ink wash with the perfect amount of watery softness to its shapes. Layers of abstract fish shine out of the blue in shade of silver that catch the light.
An infinite loop of motion and life!

Above you can see the abstract fishies up close, all light and shadow and overlapping motion. Below, the painting is in its tank, er, frame, on its way to its new home.

Sketches for Patreon supporters by Amy Crook, June 2018
My patient Patreon supporters have sketches! They’re all pretty bad about asking for them, lol, but I love every person anyway since that makes it easier for me to go above and beyond when the mood strikes.
From left to right, we have:
- “storage units DOOM” for Jeff
- Bitty from OMGCP for Grace
- Matt from Swan Song for Corinne
- and on the bottom, dark and gloomy and fiery for Springbok
Want one of your own? Become a patron!

Shiny Dragonair

Shiny Dragonair, 7″x5″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
Another rare alternate color scheme Pokemon commission for Sekrit Patron! This time we went for double the loveliness of this pretty dragon type with the normal blue and “shiny” pink twined together in draconic curiosity, if not love.

Shiny Rowlet

Shiny Rowlet, 7″x5″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
Another shiny Pokemon! This guy is also a commission, of course — I’m finally getting the hang of drawing them in a dynamic manner, especially after Umbreon last month. The “shiny” refers to a color change, this one’s normally brown and leaf green, but he’s looking pretty spiffing here in his alternate palette.
For the fellow nerds out there, I finally got my first shiny on Dratini Day, mainly because they were everywhere — I ended up with six!

Chinhands and Spittake

Chinhands & Spittake, 7″x5″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
More commissions! More Inception! More chibis!
This wonderful person was happy to be led to my list of needed emojis for our Slack, and we chose the chinhands and spit take as ones for her commission. Especially of note are Eames’ purple trackies, and Arthur’s beautiful blush.

Cheerful Helena
Tuesday, March 13th, 2018
Cheerful Helena, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
The second of my Orphan Black commissions, Helena here is for a birthday card! She’s looking very cheerful and only a little like she might bite, really. Lots of tiny pattern on this one, the plaid on her outfit plus the tiny paisleys on her shirt were a challenge.
My commissions queue is opening up soon, so email me if you want to get on the wait list!
