Ambivalence: mixed feelings,
7″x5″ brush pen, pen & ink, and Copic marker on paper
Another Patreon sketch, today we have some mixed feelings about bow ties. Are they really cool? Eleven isn’t so certain, but his confidence will perk up again soon, I have no doubt. Perhaps the TARDIS will reassure him once it arrives on the scene.
If you’d like a chance to request your own fancy word art, come support me on Patreon!

qt3.14s, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
Tan, blonde Bond and pale, curly-haired Q are celebrating their love with puns, the little cutie pies. This simple, bold chibi style brings maximum adorableness to this pair!
You can send someone else your love and support with this grin-inducing greeting card, too.

May Patreon sketches & a bit of word art
Tuesday, May 31st, 2016
This past Wednesday was a bit of a madhouse, and this next one might be worse. My roommate of 9 years is moving out, and someone new is moving in! I’m very grateful to have found someone so fast (as is my old roomie, who got to squeak out with less than a month’s notice), but it’s going to be a lot of changes. The first of which is a small raise in my rent, sigh!
Do consider supporting my art on Patreon and optionally getting sketches of your own, assuming that my art is something enjoy and support!
Don’t be afraid to dream a little bigger, darling.
In lieu of doing my own word art live on Periscope, I did this little quote from Inception while watching someone else’s Periscope. Perisception, or something.
Knitting sketch for CC
This is sort of a study for a larger piece of art. It’s interesting trying to google people knitting, because in half the photos you can tell it’s just a model holding the needles attractively instead of actually knitting.
“Gollum with the good hair” for Jeff’s bizarre prompt
Gollum is saying, “Precious is back from the tasty orange munchie mans… And some new hair!” I have basically no excuse for this one, but it’s definitely Jeff’s fault.
“A cup of tea for Spring” for Kim
So let’s conclude with a lovely little cup of wildflowers, a bright breath of spring after the foreverness of winter this year.
Have a lovely short holiday week, for those of you who got Monday off!

Ariadne and Yusuf

Ariadne & Yusuf, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
Someone asked me to make a bookmark set out of the Arthur and Eames art from Inception, and so I bring you two more of the fascinating secondary characters. Ariadne is the architect who builds worlds and mazes for their dreams, and Yusuf is the chemist who finds ways to put them under and still get their kick in the end.

Librocubicularist: one who reads in bed,
5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
I had a lot of choices for who to draw here, but in the end Hermione seemed like the perfect embodiment of this hard-to-pronounce* word.
Besides, it gave me a chance to draw an unflattering cat selfie of Crookshanks, which is a joy not to be underestimated.
Are you a librocubicularist? I am, every night without fail!
*Seriously, so hard to pronounce.

Ninja Pets

Ninja Pets, 7″x5″ pen & ink on paper
Does your cat do this? I will be working away (or goofing off mightily) and suddenly find that there is a cat in my lap and I’m petting it. Belladonna’s sneakier than Pod most of the time, but they both do it. My question is always, wait, when did this happen?

Arthur and Eames bookmarks

Eames & Arthur bookmarks, Inception parody art
I actually drew these ages ago for a commission, with grumpy Arthur glaring at a smirking Eames, but due to a hiccup with my scanner and some subsequent fighting with Photoshop, I didn’t get around to posting them.
Eames’ shirt has a lovely pattern in the orange, and his coat suggests a hint of tweed. Arthur’s wearing an elegant windowpane check, subtly patterned tie in a complementary grey, and a cream shirt that sets off his scowl.
