Tea: Lestrade
Thursday, April 21st, 2016
Tea: Lestrade, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
One of my favourite patrons commissioned me to draw a series of 4 little comic portraits of her favourite characters with their favourite teas. Favourites all around!
This third piece in the Tea Series features DI Lestrade from the BBC Sherlock series. The put-upon detective inspector needs a strong, bracing cup of Assam to help him keep up with Sherlock’s antics.

Tea: Q
Thursday, April 14th, 2016
Tea: Q, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
One of my favourite patrons commissioned me to draw a series of 4 little comic portraits of her favourite characters with their favourite teas. Favourites all around!
This second piece in the Tea Series features Q from the most recent James Bond films, drinking Earl Grey out of his Scrabble mug. He’s not in his pyjamas, so obviously this isn’t his first cup. Let’s hope he hasn’t caused too much destruction in his day yet, or had cause to strangle 007.

Torporific

Torporific: tending to cause numbness or inactivity
5″x7″ pen & ink on paper – $45
It’s definitely a house rule among cat owners that you can’t be expected to do any sort of responsible adulting if you’ve got a cat in your lap. They have their very own special gravity that causes inactivity among their chosen humans/bedwarmers.
I drew this live on Persicope; come join me some Wednesday around 2-3pm Pacific. Next week I’ll be doing a Patreon patron’s requested word!

Tea: 11th Doctor
Thursday, March 24th, 2016
Tea: 11th Doctor, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
One of my favourite patrons commissioned me to draw a series of 4 little comic portraits of her favourite characters with their favourite teas. Favourites all around!
This first piece in the Tea Series is the Eleventh Doctor, drinking delicately out of his decorated cup and saucer. I’d like to say the Time Lord knows better than to put milk or sugar in his oolong, but this is a man deeply fond of fish fingers and custard in combination, so who knows.
We’ll get to the other three next month, after the Floating Gallery has drifted away.

March Patreon Art
Thursday, March 17th, 2016
4 bookmarks by Amy Crook, 1.5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on comic backing board
My wonderful backers on Patreon this month gave me some great prompts, and so we have a dragon, a cat, some spring flowers, and Rory from Gilmore Girls. I was apparently feeling the purple, though to be fair I knew the dragon person liked purple, and I’ve always associated spring with lilacs.
If you’d like to see me sketch to your specs next month, become a patron yourself!

Wimble
Tuesday, March 15th, 2016
Wimble: Any of several boring tools, such as a gimlet or an auger; to bore with.
7″x5″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
This was only the second Word Art Wednesday, and I’ve already resorted to terrible puns. I don’t think this bodes well for you all, but hopefully you’ll enjoy them anyway.
I’ll be doing another of these tomorrow on Periscope, probably around 2pm Pacific. Come join me! Or watch me. Or at least my hands. Something.

Conversation Arts week 4
Monday, February 29th, 2016
February is almost over, and these are the last of the conversation heart sketches. I went through and isolated all of the prompts I’d not yet drawn (but still pulled them at random each day), and that took me exactly through the end of the month. Yay!
Conversation Arts 22: Date Night – $45
I get a bit Genghis Khan. Also known as the most adorkable music video ever.
Conversation Arts 23: Sweet Stuff – $25
This sketchy art is perfect for the Mad Hatter’s sketchy personality – but at least he’s got sweet treats for us.
Conversation Arts 24: Ooh La La – sold
I’ve had umbrellas on my mind, and Sherlock wanted to show off his.
Conversation Arts 25: Be Happy – $45
What better to be happy about than a Pooh Bear and his very best Piglet?
Conversation Arts 26: Real Love – $10
Giving up the last slice of pizza: now that’s real love.
Conversation Arts 27: BFF – $10
Getting my obscure fandom on, but my BFF knows the score.
Conversation Arts 28: I Love You – sold
This dragon loooooves tea. Tea is life. Mmmmcaffeine.
Conversation Arts 29: Wicked Cool – $45
Roxy as promised, bringing us the Leap Day goodness in her pinstripe Kingsman suit.
Next month…
I’m going to try a regular Wednesday thing instead of daily art, to see if I can keep from driving myself batty. Come watch me on Periscope!
