Snowflakes, a Sherlock parody comic by Amy Crook

Snowflakes, a Sherlock parody comic by Amy Crook

John and Sherlock agreed to a festive winter evening making snowflakes. Unfortunately, they have very different ideas about how to go about that particular activity.

Whose do you think will win out?*

Snowflakes, 7″x5″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper. Get the cheerful holiday card on Etsy!

*I think they’ll do both, first Sherlock’s and then John’s.

Short Friend

Short Friend, a Sherlock parody comic by Amy Crook

Short Friend, a Sherlock parody comic by Amy Crook

Sherlock apparently underestimates John’s height and level of jaundice in this silly little Despicable Me crossover. He tells the audience, “I took the precaution of a long* coat and a short friend,” while gesturing to the wrong short friend. Poor John!

Well, perhaps Sherlock will remember this next time he wants some tea and John pretends he can’t hear him.

Short Friend, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper. Available as a blank card on Etsy, of course.

One Plus One

One Plus One, a Sherlock parody by Amy Crook

One Plus One, a Sherlock parody by Amy Crook

I love that Sesame Street puts some of their most awesome stuff on Youtube now, including this gem with Benedict Cumberbatch and the Count. I was inspired by the very cute ending with the Count saying, “Dat is 1 smart man, ah-ah!”

So, we have one of my favorite geek equations: 1+1<3 — where we have 1 smart man, 1 loyal man, and of course when you put them together, there’s the love. I even made it into a card for my Etsy shop.

Birthdaybomb

Birthdaybomb, a Sherlock parody comic by Amy Crook

Birthdaybomb, a Sherlock parody comic by Amy Crook

Happy pi day! This comic has nothing to do with pie or pi, but the nerd in me couldn’t let it go by unacknowledged.

So, today’s art isn’t technically a commission, but it was a gift for one of my wonderful patrons. For her birthday, I decided to do something topical yet very in keeping with Sherlock’s personality — after all, any attention that’s not being paid to him is clearly going to the wrong place. John’s sincere moment of sweetness is being photobombed by our favorite showoff, but he does manage to get his, “Happy Birthday,” in edgewise.

It is, of course, also available as a card at my Etsy shop, for those of you unlucky enough not to own the original. 😉

Dancing Lessons

BBC Sherlock dipping his John

Dancing Lessons, a Sherlock parody comic by Amy Crook

When watching the new series of Sherlock (which I hope you’ve seen!), my mind caught on the image of Sherlock teaching John to dance for his wedding reception. After John executed the perfect dip with Mary, I had a giggle over the idea of him learning how with Sherlock.

Sherlock, of course, had to demonstrate on John, first, but I’m sure they did the other way later. It was fun getting to draw John’s hair all fweeee!

I’ve also made it available as a card in my Etsy shop. Because reasons.

Tea is Love

Tea is Love, Sherlock parody art by Amy Crook

Tea is Love, Sherlock parody art by Amy Crook

There’s just something special about that person who makes you tea when they make their own without being asked. Despite the contentious onscreen friendship, I’ve always thought there must be quiet moments at 221b Baker Street where John and Sherlock get along.

You can get this sweet image as one of this year’s Valentines in my Etsy shop, and give it to someone else you adore to show you appreciate the little things they do for you. Or to suggest they make you tea* more often. One of those.
