Morning Kiss

Morning Kiss, James Bond parody art by Amy Crook

Morning Kiss, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper.

A lovely patron asked me to do a number of commissions for her, and this one got moved to the top of the pile in order to make it available as a Valentine!

She wanted a sweet morning moment, of Bond is just his pj bottoms and Q in cute sleep shorts, with James bringing his Quartermaster his first cup of Earl Grey. And, of course, giving him a kiss on the cheek.

Cutie pies.

Candles Make it More Romantic

Candles Make it More Romantic, Sherlock fan art by Amy Crook

Candles Make it More Romantic, 7″x5″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper.

When Sherlock finally decided to go all-out for John and put candles on the table, he really put candles on the table. He starts to say, “I might have gone a bit…” but John interrupts with, “Angelo was right, Candles do make the table more romantic.”

A wonderful card for a Valentine or year round to show how nice it is to be loved just as you are.

How about a little cuttle? Cuttlefish, that is. This punny cephalopod has heart eyes just for you!

Give the Valentine to someone you adore, or simply can’t wait to get your tentacles around.

Cuppa Cheer

Cuppa Cheer by Amy Crook

Cuppa Cheer, 7″x5″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper

If you’re on my (admittedly tiny) holiday card list, you’ve already seen this art! I haven’t yet put the gold paint on this image for scanning reasons, but I’d be happy to gild the cup’s golden edges for you if you want some extra sparkle for your home.

This painting would add some cheer to any Christmas-celebrating home. Put it in a frame and pull it out at the holidays every year to celebrate both the season and the value of a good cuppa tea.

What kind of tea do you like best?

Above, you can see the holly decorating the teabag tag on this cheerful cuppa. Below, it’s sitting in a plain frame, though one could easily find a beautiful holiday holder for future display.

Tree Trimming

Tree Trimming, a Cthulhu comic by Amy Crook

Tree Trimming, a Cthulhu comic by Amy Crook

Cthulhu is getting into the holiday spirit a little early this year! He’s trimming his tree with his favorite decoration, cultists. Even the tree is enjoying its little holiday snack, er, decor.

The greeting card will bring just the right holiday cheer to the right person — a fan of horror, especially the Lovecraftian sort, with a good sense of humor.

Congratulations, Ellen

Congratulations, Ellen, a Spock commission by Amy Crook

Congratulations, Ellen, a Spock commission by Amy Crook

I finished this commission this month for someone who wanted NuTrek Spock as a congratulations gift for a friend. This is what she had to say about it in her review:

When my friend passed the CPA exam I knew the occasion called for something special. Since one of the things we’ve bonded over was our mutual love of sci-fi movies a commissioned piece from Amy seemed like the way to go. First off, Amy is an absolute delight to work with. She responded to all of my emails quickly and was enthusiastic to collaborate. She let me know what was happening every step of the way from idea, to sketch, to color. The end result of her creativity was, as always, a quality product. I couldn’t be happier with my commission and I will definitely be buying from her again! Thanks, Amy!

-Rebecca

If you’d like to commission a comic as a gift (or for yourself!), you can get the details here.

Congratulations, Ellen, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper.

New Arrival to Middle Earth

New Arrival to Middle Earth by Amy Crook

New Arrival to Middle Earth by Amy Crook

It’s dangerous to make comments about hobbits in the presence of Jo … she might go and commission some art for you.

This adorable comic is for a couple having a baby, who have been self-described as two dwarves who wish they were a hobbit and an elf. Thus, we have a dwarf-decorated crib with a hobbity dwarf on one side, and an elfin dwarf on the other.
