The Death of Me, Too, 4 of 6, a Sherlock comic by Amy Crook
And of course, it being Sherlock, he might be taking this caring thing a little too far. He’s brought oranges, biscuits, more tissues, another blanket, another pillow, a sandwich, and of course some chicken soup. He’s sure he read somewhere that it’s better to feed sick boys their soup so they eat it all, but John’s just not cooperating.

The Death of Me, Too, 3 of 6, a Sherlock comic by Amy Crook
Smug Sherlock is smug. John’s got everything an invalid could want, from toast to his otter plushie. He’s sure to be well in no time!

The Death of Me, Too, 2 of 6, a Sherlock comic by Amy Crook
John might be sick, but he’s clever enough to know what will get Sherlock to reciprocate at least a little care, even if it’s just a cup of tea. If there’s one thing Sherlock can’t stand, after all, it’s being told he can’t figure something out.

The Death of Me, Too, 1 of 6, a Sherlock comic by Amy Crook
It took me a bit, but I’ve finally finished the sequel to The Death of Me, the 6-panel comic in which Sherlock gets a cold and poor John has to take care of him. The tables are turned, John’s the one that’s ill now, and we get to see how Sherlock fares with his blogger out of commission.
The originals were commissioned by my favorite kiwi, but there will be a print available in my Etsy shop at the end of the week.

Tying the Knot, squid cartoon by Amy Crook
These two squid have found love in each other, the blue-eyed green squid and green-eyed blue squid making the perfect pair. They’ve just tied the knot, so congratulate them on their union! Just don’t ask which one’s the boy.
Tying the Knot, 7″x5″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper.
You can also congratulate your cephalopod-loving friends on their marriage with a card from my Etsy shop.

Above, you can see a close-up of their knotted tentacles. Below, they’ve slipped into a frame and are hanging out with the poor five-armed octopus, and my iPhone of course.

Thank You Squid cartoon by Amy Crook, $99
Wouldn’t a gift like this make you want to say “Thank You” to the giver? I mean, really, who wouldn’t want a squid that cute? And the squid of course just wants to be loved and appreciated. It’s even sporting a bright red bow!
Thank You Squid, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper, $99 with free shipping.

Above is the cheery red bow shining in the sun, on top of the squid’s teal head. The original is a gorgeous bright teal color, which of course no screen will ever reproduce properly. Dammit. Below, he’s hanging out in a frame with an octopus from Ikea. Well, pentapus, really. Ikea’s a bit odd that way.

Skull Paper

Skull Paper by Amy Crook
Another foray into Victorian-style wallpapers with a limited palette, this piece combines loose brushwork with muted, complementary colors. The top copper shade is slightly iridescent, which adds a certain decaying glory to the erratic pattern. It makes me think of a design mouldering away in some abandoned Gothic manor house, the grinning skulls only adding to the haunted gloom of the place.
Skull Paper, 4″x6″ watercolor and iridescent watercolor on Fluid watercolor paper.
Skull Paper, detail, by Amy Crook
Above, you can see the light reflecting off some of the warm copper paint, which is at its darkest and most iridescent in the halos around each skull. Below, you can see the piece in a frame, hanging out on my desk with some other examples of scribbly, imperfect wallpaper.
