Sherlock Bookmarks, set of 4

4 Sherlock bookmarks by Amy Crook
The lovely person that bought this John Watson bookmark wanted a whole set of the four lads from the show, and here’s the results! I fortunately have a bunch of these identical paper scraps from cutting down the paper for the alphabet, so it was easy to do four that matched. John and Lestrade are on cool grey backgrounds with warm grey skin, and the Holmeses are all warm greys except for their clothing. Everyone got a bit of personality to them, John in his stripey jumper with the skull art from the show, Sherlock with his violin, Lestrade with his phone at a crime scene and Mycroft with his brolly and wallpaper.

Crow Bookmark 2 by Amy Crook
My BFF’s birthday is in January, on the same day as JRR Tolkien’s, which always amuses us since mine’s the same day as Frodo & Bilbo Baggins. In addition to the gift he hasn’t gotten yet because I’m a slacker, I made him a bookmark all his own, with black ink crows flying against a blue marker sky.

Harry Dresden Bookmark
by Amy Crook
Today I’m back to art you can’t have because it was for someone else’s Christmas present! And yes, I do give good presents.
For my birthday, this friend pre-ordered the new Dresden Files book for me, and so as part of his Christmas present I drew him up this portrait of a young, sassy Harry Dresden. The book Dresden’s a bit more careworn these days, though not actually any more fashionable, but he hasn’t lost his sense of humor even after all he’s been through. Plus, here he’s got his staff and his blasting rod, because that’s just how he rolls.

John Watson Bookmark 1
by Amy Crook
And here we come to the very end of Bookmark Week with John Watson. He’s leaning against a cool grey wall, and he’s been colored all in warm and cool greys himself, even his face and hair, just like Lestrade yesterday. The skull is grinning white from above, though I admit I didn’t get too enthusiastic and do the wallpaper properly.
If you did want a bookmark of your own, you can check out the ones that are still available here. They make great stocking stuffers!

Above, you can see John leaning shyly against the wall, hoping you’ll like him. Below, he’s hanging out with a book, like bookmarks do.

Lestrade Bookmark 1
by Amy Crook
The week is nearly at an end, and here we come to our Saturday Morning Cartoon, which is also already spoken for. DI Lestrade’s just leaning against the wall, checking his texts while he waits for something interesting to happen. I colored this one entirely in shades of grey, just like Thinking in Grey but without all the background madness.

Above, you can see the wee bit of warm grey in with all the cool ones, shading Lestrade’s otherwise white face and hand. Below, I put him with a book, just because I could.

Skeleton Bookmark
by Amy Crook
Thank goodness it’s Friday! Normally this sketchy little dude would go on Sunday, but this time I had two bookmarks sell before writing the posts, so I thought I’d save those for the weekend. That’s right, this is the last of the bookmarks for the week you can actually buy! Or you can click here to see all the available bookmarks in one easy spot.

Above you can see his grinning face up close and personal. Below, he’s hanging out on a book to show you just how slender a skeleton can be, when he’s a bookmark, anyway.

Bubble Queue Bookmark
by Amy Crook
Spirals and bubbles and Qs, oh, my! It’s a queue of Qs rising up, large and small, with curly double tails and a whole lot of whimsy. This one’s small but nice and sturdy, drawn on a bit of comic backing board so it’s even acid-free.
