Alex Benedict by Amy Crook
A few of you might be aware that I’m doing NaNoWriMo this year — it’s my 6th year & 5th win (I passed 50K on the 25th). I haven’t titled this year’s novel yet, but in the inevitability of being an artist writing about the same thing every day, I decided to do a sketch of my main character, Alexander Benedict.
Since I was drawing him as procrastination for actual writing, he’s in the client meeting notebook I use, which is a proper sketchbook that got wet at some point in its life and has warped pages — perfect for taking notes in, not so great for art I want to scan and/or keep later. Oops.

Zombie Bride by Amy Crook
This lovely lady is another one of the bonus zombies from my Cthulhu Coloring Book. I decided to go for a more blue-toned dead (rather than grey or green), sort of an homage to The Corpse Bride. I had fun adding in some extra details with the coloring, like the bloody handprint on her dress.

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!
