Weeble Wednesday: Wolfman Hearts You
Wednesday, February 9th, 2011
Wolfman + Heart by Amy Crook
This guy’s a little fuzzy on some things, but his heart is warm and furry and all for you! Werewolf, wolfman, lycanthrope, whatever you want to call him, he’s not on anyone’s team.
This Wolfman is the last of the new illustrations for my Monster Heart Coloring Book, aside from the bonus brides. He’s such a classic movie monster I had to include him.

Weeble Wednesday: Ghost Hearts You
Wednesday, February 2nd, 2011
Ghost + Heart by Amy Crook
My spooky ghost is another of the new illustrations for my Monster Heart Coloring Book. I decided to reverse color him, giving him a subtle blue glow around his edges and then fading to darkness out to the margins of the paper. I haven’t made him into a Valentine, though, so if you want to take him home, you’ll have to just get the original.
Ghost and Ghost’s Heart, both 5″x7″ pen and ink and Copic markers on watercolor paper. $129 for the pair in a double frame, with free shipping.

Weeble Wednesday: Cthulhu Hearts Tentacles

Cthulhu + Heart by Amy Crook
Cthulhu has brought you a bouquet of cultists! He just wants to be loved, see how he’s baring his heart for you?
This is another of the new illustrations for my Monster Heart Coloring Book. I couldn’t resist putting a Cthulhu in, and of course he’s also available as a Valentine.

Weeble Wednesday: Dracula
Wednesday, January 12th, 2011
Dracula + Heart by Amy Crook
Today I’ve got a weeble close to my own heart, the classic Bela Lugosi’s Dracula — and his heart, of course. I even tried to copy Bela’s classic hand gestures with the stubby weeble fingers, to what I think are pretty amusing results. He’s got a swishy cape and a charming grin to show you how much he adores you.
You can color him yourself my new Monster Heart Coloring Book, get him on a handmade greeting card at Etsy, or buy the originals, below. Take home an adorably classic movie monster today!

Monster Heart Coloring Book

Monster Heart Coloring Book, front + inside, by Amy Crook
The perfect gift for the horror-loving Valentine in your life — a Monster Heart Coloring Book. Each monster is presented with his heart on the opposite page, from Frankenstein’s Monster’s stitched-together heart to the Mummy’s bandage-wrapped one. And as a bonus, a few of the monsters have brides! Dracula, modeled after the very classic performance by Bela Lugosi, even has a trio of his brides.
My Cthulhu Coloring Books got great reviews last year, so I decided to put out something special for Valentine’s day. This one’s a little longer, with 4 extra illustrations, and there’s all-new art including a Zombie and a brand-new Cthulhu.
Check out the Monster Heart Coloring Book at my Etsy shop – it’s sure to make you smile.

Weeble Wednesday: The Mummy
Wednesday, January 5th, 2011
The Mummy + Heart by Amy Crook
I got laid up yesterday by illness and missed my 2nd art post of the new year! Not the best way to begin, but there wasn’t much else I could do. Still not feeling my best, but I got my new coloring books done!
Today I have the fully-colored Mummy illustration from my new Monster Heart Coloring Book. He was fun to color despite the simplicity, I got to use some techniques to age his bandages without making him totally yellowed. I even have a marker called “old linen” that I used.
You can get him for your mummy-loving Valentine at Etsy, or buy the original below.

Weeble Wednesday: Frankenstein’s Monster

Frankenstein’s Monster + Heart by Amy Crook
I colored up one of the monsters for my upcoming Monster Heart Coloring Book for next year! This is Frankenstein’s Monster, and his heart. He’s an awfully charming monster, I sort of imagine he’d say, “How you doin’?” if he could talk.
These are actually two separate pieces that go together. The coloring book will have all-new art in it, and I’m having a ton of fun with the hearts and weebles. I mean, who knew Cthulhu could make puppy eyes? But you’ll have to wait a bit to see that. 😉
