August 2023 Patreon Sketches
Thursday, March 7th, 2024
Lots this month! Patreon supporters were engaged or something.

y’all asked for a LOT of cards the month before I went and got covid, dang! I’m late but not outside of September, so I’m going to consider it a win. There’s quite a range of styles this time, because I tended to get 2 done and then have to fuck off and do something else, lol. Enjoy!
- Corinne wrote a fic where super soldiers in the MCU were also werewolves, and I had to draw chibi werewolf Red skull
- Amy B asked for petrichor
- Eric wanted cookies & cream and got ghost Oreos (sold)
- Amber asked for the 1st day of school (sold)
- SaraBeth asked for autumn vibes
- JoVE asked for “ready for summer but it’s raining” (sold)
- Jefferson asked for “hotberg icetub” because he loves to torment me (sold)
- Andria wanted dragon(fruit) shaved ice
- Nick asked for a Princely Bottom a la Red White & Royal Blue
- Kelly wanted space! I love painting space cards, ngl. (sold)
And that’s all of them! So many!

July 2023 Patreon Sketches
Monday, March 4th, 2024
More sketches, more Pokemon. My patrons know what they like, I guess?

Sketch card time! Y’all gave me ALL the prompts for next month, but this time there were only 5. SaraBeth, I haven’t forgotten you, keep your eyes out for a whole set of ghosts in cute costumes next week!
I also went and made wee travel palettes of basically all my watercolors, and then had fun using them for this.
- Amy B asked for “melt” and gets word art entirely from the warm colors palette (sold)
- Eric asked for a Pokemon and got the first thing that I saw when I opened GO, so blame them, but also enjoy this in its 3 shades of blue (sold)
- Jefferson asked for “iceberg hot tub” so here’s a polar bear enjoying a bath, also all in blue (sold)
- Nick asked for some good luck and also 🧡 so here’s an only slightly menacing bit of word art from the greens palette, with bonus hearts from the warms when I pulled it out for Amy’s melty card

April 2023 Patreon Sketches

It’s about time I started using this website again, don’t you think? Please enjoy the next, like, month’s worth of posts, which are all Patreon sketch cards from the past year.

We have 5 cards for 4 requests, because I wasn’t sure the abstract peony was working out, so I did the other one just in case, and then they both worked out so, extra flowers!
- Eric asked for bunnies and gets a bonus Buffy quote (sold)
- Nick asked for a peony and got two (both sold)
- Rey asked for patience, and gets this dramatic bit of word art (sold)
- Amy B wanted a kinkajou (sold)

May 2022 Patreon sketches
Tuesday, March 28th, 2023
More sketches! A lot of these get sent to patrons for my quarterly packets, so they vanish into the mist never to be seen again. I’m pretty sure these have all been sent off to new adventures!

May 2022 ACEO sketches by Amy Crook
The right column is all filler cats, because I felt like continuing with some no-line, super sketchy cats after I finished the patron sketches. We have Raccoon, Pod, and Mal from top to bottom.
The left column, top down, is for patrons! Who all asked for machines, so I decided to break out the markers and have some sketchy no-line fun.
- Rebecca S asked for trains and got this VROoooM train
- Eric wanted Giant Robots and got the most ridiculous kitty kaiju training bot. He knows why. (sold)
- Jefferson prompted “vacuum cleaner” and got a tumblr meme he won’t even know (sorry), Stabby the Roomba. (sold)
