This is the penultimate blog post! I’ll have to actually do some new-new art soon if I want to keep it up. In other news, though, I did finish the first draft of my tenth novel, yay! That’ll publish in June, probably, just in time for Pride.

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)

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)
