Smaug’s Hoard
Tuesday, August 2nd, 2016
Smaug’s Hoard, 8.27″×11.69″ (A4) pen & ink and Copic marker on bleed-proof Copic paper
The tiny hobbit burglar is trying to keep himself quiet, but he’s been found by the big red dragon protecting his hoard. Smaug’s surrounded himself with gold and gems on every side, piles upon piles until there’s nowhere to go that Bilbo doesn’t set of a cascade of sound.
Smaug is a glory of reds and oranges among his shining treasures, and he looks a bit like a cat with a mouse as he huffs warm breath over the wee hobbit.
This piece is an unusual size for American, but perfect for those with sensible paper sizes — A4 is not quite letter size, and you can find frames for it at Ikea.

Above, you can see tiny Bilbo getting huffed at by a big red dragon. Below, the piece snuck like a burglar into a 9×12 frame so you can imagine how it would look in your own hoard.

Panurgic: able or ready to do anything,
7″x5″ pen & ink, brush pen, and Copic marker on paper
When I saw this word, I immediately thought of James Bond — always ready to for a lovely lady, a martini, a fight, or all three at once. He’s sticking to the drink here, but I’m sure at least one of the others will show up later to keep life interesting.

Arthur and Eames sticker designs

Arthur & Eames stickers by Amy Crook
Tumblr is celebrating the 6th anniversary of Inception, and they held an all-day chat dedicated to getting people to finish their works in progress. The lovely person running it asked me to design some stickers for those who participated, so I made Arthur for anyone who came to write at all, and Eames for those who finished & posted something.
I didn’t have a ton of time, and these stickers are actually only 1.5″ high, so I went for a quick, colorful chibi design to give us the essence of these two lovely characters without getting all fussy about the details.
Happy Inceptiversary!

Ambivalence: mixed feelings,
7″x5″ brush pen, pen & ink, and Copic marker on paper
Another Patreon sketch, today we have some mixed feelings about bow ties. Are they really cool? Eleven isn’t so certain, but his confidence will perk up again soon, I have no doubt. Perhaps the TARDIS will reassure him once it arrives on the scene.
If you’d like a chance to request your own fancy word art, come support me on Patreon!

A good word for a day when the world is too much, and all you want to do is hide under a blankie (book optional).
And just for fun, here it is with the hiding-space color-reversed to make a nice cosy cave.
