Dresden Bookmark
Saturday, December 29th, 2012
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.

Sharing Warmth
Saturday, December 15th, 2012
I sent a Moo card with the main image on it to one of my Sherlock bookmark buyers, and she said she’d never seen it, and sure enough, I’d never posted it. Oops! It’s nicely seasonal now, anyway, with Jack Frost nipping at all sorts of things all over the hemisphere. I really think Sherlock makes it, though, forever interrupting with his own importance.

Christmas Cupboard
Saturday, December 8th, 2012
When I was doing holiday card art this year, I had to do one for Harry Potter, too. He’s got a rather tentacular Christmas tree, but he’s never let things being a bit spooky stop him from enjoying his holidays.
Just remember, the cupboard under the stairs is only for hiding Christmas presents, not little boys.
Christmas Cupboard, 2 – 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic markers on paper.
I’m happy to write something on the blank space of the cupboard image if you’d like, or you can keep them as is in their frame for a very Potter sort of Christmas.

John Watson Bookmark 1
Sunday, December 2nd, 2012
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!
John Watson Bookmark 1, 1.875″ x 4.875″ pen & ink and Copic markers on paper, nfs (sold).
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
Saturday, December 1st, 2012
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.

Shut Up and Help for the Holidays
Saturday, November 10th, 2012
I decided I wanted a second Sherlock holiday card this year, and I decided it had to have Sherlock being his usual annoying self. I spared John any truly awful Christmas sweaters, but made him carry all the boxes.

Hellfire
Friday, November 9th, 2012
Oranges and reds are some of the hardest colors to reproduce really well in Photoshop, alas. This piece has a great, intense bright orange that lightens up to golden-yellow in one corner, and holds a secret little demon-face in the other that scowls at you from out of the flame, or perhaps is made from it. The texture is enhanced with a bit of brown in the low spots, and the little face got a tiny bit of extra love to pull it out of the background using Copic markers.
Hellfire, 12″x12″ acrylic paint and Copic marker on canvas.
Above, you can see the scowly little demon-face glaring up at you from the canvas. Below, I stepped back and got a photo of it with some of the stuff on my desk, including pens, pencils, and a Jack in the Box Christmas antenna ball, because I am a very special sort of artist.
