100 Cats no.11-20

Tuesday, February 18th, 2025

Another week, another 10 cats! Rather than doing the smart thing and refine a style throughout the project, I did the fun thing and tried a bunch of different styles, depending on the day.

100 Cats no.1-10

Tuesday, February 11th, 2025

A long, long time ago – okay, in the first quarter of 2023 – I did a big art project where I painted or drew 1 cat (almost) every day, until I had 100 cat paintings. It took me a long time to properly scan, process, and ready all those images for you, but believe it or not, they’re only just now ready to share here.

I shared the whole thing on Patreon as it was happening, but they’re used to my badly edited phone photos by now! I wanted these nicer for posterity, which ended up making them so, so late.

At some point I’d like to revisit this project with 100 birds, but for now, enjoy your first 10 cats!

In Dreams

Monday, April 8th, 2024

In Dreams by Amy Crook

In Dreams, 6″x4″ watercolor on paper, $200.

Kitty!

This sleeping feline is floating among the stars, at least in its dreams. The paper glows through a bright white where the cat is outlined, and the sky itself has swirls of black, blue, and violet all through it, showing through stars out into the infinite. Perfect for a nap!

Blue-Green 1

Friday, April 5th, 2024

Blue-Green 1 by Amy Crook

Blue-Green 1, 4″x8″ watercolor on paper, $250.

I was having a lot of Rothko feelings when I painted this, and I love it.

The deep deep blue and mineral green are filled with texture and detail that belies their tiny size. The various shades that make up the blue are especially prone to catching the light and showing you something new every time you look.

Still Death

Thursday, April 4th, 2024

Still Death by Amy Crook

Still Death, 6″x4″ watercolor on paper, $200.

It’s like a still life, but eerie! Little creepy doll fingers poke their shiny green flesh up out of the rust-streaked soil, while the cracked head is helpless to do anything but watch. Bats fly in the on the sulphur winds and

The whole tiny painting is the size of a postcard, perfect to hide in a bookshelf or niche for extra spook points.

Sowing

Tuesday, April 2nd, 2024

Sowing by Amy Crook

Sowing, 7″x5″ watercolor on paper, $250.

This abstract has echoes of my old, old planetary paintings, but it’s also got the same mood as my Growth series, just from the other side — all those sent-away seeds are finding a place on the blood-red planet just waiting to be sown.

The painting is on a thick, deliciously textured handmade paper to add amazing detail, and the seed-stars shine with a subtle green.

Consuming Sunlight

Monday, April 1st, 2024

Consuming Sunlight by Amy Crook

Consuming Sunlight, 12″x12″ acrylic ink on paper, $450.

An unusually large painting for me, this one is also set in the daytime instead of the middle of the night. Weird!

This corvid is trying to wrap his beak around something far too large and abstract for it, as the sun shines through the tree branches, turning them red-gold. In the detail, you can see real sunlight shining off the bird, and the tangle of winter-bare sticks in the middle of the tree.
