The Stars Are Right 4 by Amy Crook
A baleful yellow planted like a great eye stares out from the cold depths of space, sending golden chanting out into the void in a mysterious ancient language. The surrounding stars are a shimmery green, adding to the surreal feeling of the piece. This piece would a nice touch of eerie Lovecraftian horror to any office or home. Well, for certain values of nice, anyway.
The Stars Are Right 4, 10″x8″ Japanese watercolor and glitter gel pen on Arches cover black paper.

Above you can see the shiny gold glitter “lettering” and iridescent green starnext to the eye-like yellow planet. Below, I’ve put it in a frame and let it loom over my comparatively wee iPhone for your visual reference.

The Death of Me, 6 of 6, a Sherlock comic by Amy Crook
Poor John. It’s too early to tell if he’s caught Sherlock’s cold or if he’s just shattered from the workout he got taking care of Sherlock, but either way, he’s not ready to go much of anywhere.
I imagine if John did catch Sherlock’s cold, Sherlock would at first not care and then John would prod his ego, and Sherlock would become determined not to be outdone. Either way, hilarity would ensue!
If you’d like a print of this little comic, I’ve got them for sale here in my Etsy shop.

The Death of Me, 5 of 6, a Sherlock comic by Amy Crook
Really, what can John say to that? It’s about as close to proper appreciation as Sherlock gets, after all.

The Death of Me, 4 of 6, a Sherlock comic by Amy Crook
Mrs. Hudson’s not their housekeeper, but she couldn’t resist a bit of picking up after poor Sherlock. Look at the state he’s in, and only John to take care of him, well, the boys do need a hand once in a while.

The Death of Me, 3 of 6, a Sherlock comic by Amy Crook
Sherlock, of course, has abused John’s kindness to a rather extreme degree, littering his little corner of the flat with used teacups and tissues. And then not wanting to let John out of his sight for even five minutes! Poor John.

The Death of Me, 2 of 6, a Sherlock comic by Amy Crook
John’s a very kind man and a good doctor, so Sherlock’s got tea, Lemsip, and a slice of Battenberg cake among other things. I’m told a smooch on the noggin by a real proper doctor is the best treatment of all, but it’s one only deployed in extreme cases.

The Death of Me, 1 of 6, a Sherlock comic by Amy Crook
We’re doing something a bit different this week! A lovely patron commissioned me this summer to do a couple of 6-panel comics for her, and the first of them is done, so you’ll be getting a comic M-W and F-Sun, with a break on Thursday for this week’s letter. The whole thing will be available as a print in my Etsy shop at the end of the week, but until then, enjoy this bit of silly Sherlock humor, in which Sherlock gets a cold and John gets to deal with it.
