Shut Up and Help for the Holidays
Saturday, November 10th, 2012
I decided I wanted a second Sherlock holiday card this year, and I decided it had to have Sherlock being his usual annoying self. I spared John any truly awful Christmas sweaters, but made him carry all the boxes.
Shut Up and Help for the Holidays, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic markers on paper, nfs (sold).

What What What
Tuesday, November 6th, 2012
After making the Eleventh Doctor’s holiday card art, I had to do something with Ten. The darling Tara Swiger suggested the idea for the text, “What? What? No! What?” on the outside of the card, and inside it says, “It’s Christmas already?”
I also decided to draw the other side of the TARDIS on this one, just for variety, but then there was a magical result — the two images together had two Doctors with one TARDIS between them!

Thinking in Grey
Saturday, November 3rd, 2012
Copic markers have four kinds of grey — warm, cool, neutral and toner. I used warm and cool greys to put in all shading here, giving the whole image a muted effect like an old photo. You might recognize the pose from last week’s bookmark, which was sort of practice for this bigger piece, though of course I widened the view quite a bit.

Sherlock Bookmark 5
Saturday, October 27th, 2012
I couldn’t resist drawing up one of the iconic scenes from A Study in Pink, where Sherlock’s laid out on the couch solving his “three patch problem.” I’m inordinately fond of my Sherlockian stick figure cartoons, I must admit, but my lovely readers are, too, since he’s already sold!
Sherlock Bookmark 5, 4.875″ x 1.875″ pen & ink on paper, nfs (sold).
Above, you can see a detail of his thinking face and fancy pillow. Below, he’s snuggled up to a book just waiting to go to his new home!

Cartoon: Jo VanEvery
Saturday, October 20th, 2012
After the delightful Jo VanEvery got several cartoons from me to use in her work, she’s finally let me cartoon her! We chose a favorite sweater of hers, and the cheerful galoshes she wishes she had, and then added in one of the pigs she raises on their farm and the new lantern logo I created for her site. Or a reasonable facsimile, at least.
I think the galoshes are my favorite part.
If you’d like to be a cartoon, too, check out my page and let me know what item you’ve always wanted. It seems I end up drawing a lot of wished-for (and favourite) shoes!

Santa Hats Are Cool
Saturday, October 13th, 2012
The eleventh Doctor is very proud of his new headgear. Let’s hope this one survives more than five minutes before getting destroyed.
Santa Hats Are Cool, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic markers on paper, nfs (sold).
You can still get him on a holiday card at my Etsy shop.
