Weeble Wednesday: Zombie Jesus

Zombie Jesus by Amy Crook
A certain blonde chicken challenged me to make a cute zombie Jesus card for Christmas, and who am I to resist her?
He’s meant in the spirit of fun, so his card says, “Eat of my flesh and I’ll snack on your brains,” inside.
You can pick up any of my greeting cards at Etsy, or take home his original art below.

Whispering Gremlin for Jo VanEvery
Thursday, November 11th, 2010
Whispering Gremlin by Amy Crook,
commission for Jo VanEvery
all rights reserved
When Jo VanEvery came to me asking if I would help create an illustration for her presentation in November, I was excited to draw something new. We went back and forth on just what a gremlin looked like, and we ended up with this little green guy whispering wicked self-doubt into the ear of his human.
This naughty boy likes to undermine his human’s confidence and sow the seeds of indecision, especially in grad students.
Since this is a commissioned piece, all rights are reserved, and it may not be reposted or reused anywhere, except by Jo, of course. Thanks!

Weeble Wednesday: Zombie

Weeble Zombie by Amy Crook
This morbid fellow is another one of the bonus zombies from my Cthulhu coloring book. I originally had drawn a bunch of these guys for another purpose, but somehow they never got finished until I needed them for the coloring book. Still, I do love the details on this one, from his missing arm to the skull logo on his shoe.

Bound Angel 2

Bound Angel 2 by Amy Crook
This is the second version of yesterday’s drawing, this time a stone lithograph. The process involved in this one gave it a more scribbly feel, and the haloing effect washed out the face, and obscured the arms in stark black shadow.
The feel of this image is different than the first version for me, despite being essentially the same thing. It’s rougher, more abstract, as though the angel has begun to fade into his component parts, the whiteout glow of his halo making the shadows deeper and obscuring detail where it’s the brightest.
I ran 6 of these before clearing the stone for other use, on a heavy grey acid-free art paper. The edges of each one are hand-torn so they’re all slightly irregular, and there’s inky fingerprints around the borders of each one as a testament to their handmade nature.
