May Patreon sketches & a bit of word art
Tuesday, May 31st, 2016
This past Wednesday was a bit of a madhouse, and this next one might be worse. My roommate of 9 years is moving out, and someone new is moving in! I’m very grateful to have found someone so fast (as is my old roomie, who got to squeak out with less than a month’s notice), but it’s going to be a lot of changes. The first of which is a small raise in my rent, sigh!
Do consider supporting my art on Patreon and optionally getting sketches of your own, assuming that my art is something enjoy and support!
Don’t be afraid to dream a little bigger, darling.
In lieu of doing my own word art live on Periscope, I did this little quote from Inception while watching someone else’s Periscope. Perisception, or something.
Knitting sketch for CC
This is sort of a study for a larger piece of art. It’s interesting trying to google people knitting, because in half the photos you can tell it’s just a model holding the needles attractively instead of actually knitting.
“Gollum with the good hair” for Jeff’s bizarre prompt
Gollum is saying, “Precious is back from the tasty orange munchie mans… And some new hair!” I have basically no excuse for this one, but it’s definitely Jeff’s fault.
“A cup of tea for Spring” for Kim
So let’s conclude with a lovely little cup of wildflowers, a bright breath of spring after the foreverness of winter this year.
Have a lovely short holiday week, for those of you who got Monday off!

March Patreon Art
Thursday, March 17th, 2016
4 bookmarks by Amy Crook, 1.5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on comic backing board
My wonderful backers on Patreon this month gave me some great prompts, and so we have a dragon, a cat, some spring flowers, and Rory from Gilmore Girls. I was apparently feeling the purple, though to be fair I knew the dragon person liked purple, and I’ve always associated spring with lilacs.
If you’d like to see me sketch to your specs next month, become a patron yourself!

Conversation Arts week 2
Monday, February 15th, 2016
Another week, another set of candy hearts! I’ve eaten every one of these after finishing the sketch, and let me tell you, blue is not good. But it means the weird repeats are all natural, as it were! The whims of fate and candy have brought seven more sketches.
Conversation Arts 8: True Love – sold
Castiel + Dean = a complete inability to communicate like adults. But also love.
Conversation Arts 9: 🙂 – $10
If you’ve ever played Settlers of Catan, you have heard this joke before.
Conversation Arts 10: True Love 2 – $25
I admit it, I am addicted to Neko Atsume. Peaches really loves the sakuramochi cushion, when she can get her paws on it.
Conversation Arts 11: Melt My <3 – sold
One of my Patreon patrons asked for February rain for her sketch, and I ended up with this sweet bit of sadness.
Conversation Arts 12: Be Mine – $10
Sleep deprivation + Periscope encouragement = bee puns.
Conversation Arts 13: Let’s Kiss – $45
Apparently I really want to draw Q this month, so this time I matched him up with an orange tabby. Because kitten kisses are the best kisses.
Conversation Arts 14: Best Day 2 – $45
“Q, why did you want to come to the beach if you’re not going to swim?”
“I’ve got exactly what I want, James, don’t you worry.”

January Patreon Sketches
Tuesday, January 26th, 2016
My wonderful supporters on Patreon get the option to request sketches at the $5 and $10 level (color!), and this month I got 4 requests.
Abandoned Book for Kim, who was feeling melancholy
Death Does Netflix & Chill, for Jeff, who wanted to see Death on holiday
Favorite Treats, for Blaine who wanted my favorite food (I cheated)
Exes and Ghosts, for Molly who asked for musical and got an earworm
PS – If you’ve been curious about my writing, the little G-rated “how they met” short Untrue Love is on sale this week — for free!
This story shows us Alex’s first case, when he was an insufferable little university student instead of an insufferable adult. He meets Agent Murielle Lapointe, with whom he’s still working years later in the novels, and they work together to catch a killer.

December Patron Sketches
Wednesday, December 30th, 2015
My darling patrons over at Patreon get to request sketches when their pledge is $5 or more a month (and color for $10), and I thought I would round up the three little sketches we have from a busy December.

August Patreon Sketches
Wednesday, August 12th, 2015
007 + Q = 00Q sketches by Amy Crook
My wonderful $5+ Patreon patrons get to ask for a sketch from me every month, and this time 3 of them left prompts!
Kim asked for Q in a sweater, and so we decided of course on the warm jumper from the Spectre trailer. Then Blaine asked for Bond to go with Q, and I decided on the tactical turtleneck from the promo shots, and their eyes meeting across the boundaries of the sketches. And, of course, posing 007 like a Bond Girl. It’s only fair, really.
Jeff, being of a less shippy mindset, asked for something meta: a drawing of a Minion drawing a Minion.
