Just a silly bit of smooching I drew for a holiday card exchange. They’re definitely enjoying their holiday cheer!

I don’t know if you’ve seen these awesome cookie cutters, but I couldn’t resist sketching a little homage in some poor unsuspecting soul’s coloring book. It’s like holiday cheer, really!

I saved this guy for Tuesday for obvious reasons. I’m not sure if he’s Lovecraftian or just really creepy, but he was fun to draw, like a Van Gogh sunflower gone very, very wrong.

What? They can’t all have awesome titles. It’s been a busy weekend of coughing up my lungs and selling coloring books on Etsy, so you’ll be getting more coloring book sketches for the foreseeable future. Enjoy!

Elder Thing sketch

Elder Thing sketch by Amy Crook

Elder Thing sketch by Amy Crook

Another little coloring book sketch! This one is a proper Lovecraftian beastie, the Elder Thing, which is symmetrical along five sides instead of bilaterally. I didn’t really look up all the details, so I’m pretty sure I got some of the bits not quite right, but I don’t really mind. He looks beastly enough like this.

Cuppa Shoggoth?

I’m still not feeling well, so I’ll just let this little coloring book doodle (that is, one of the sketches I usually draw in the inside front cover whenever someone buys a Cthulhu Coloring Book or Monster Heart Coloring Book) speak for itself.

Or something.

SnowCthulhu

Snow Cthulhu watercolor by Amy Crook

SnowCthulhu by Amy Crook

It’s a snowman! It’s Cthulhu! It’s… SnowCthulhu!

Tiny, delicate pen work makes up the stick tentacles, arms and wings. This demanded careful, slightly messy watercolors to paint in the sticks and blue snowy shadows on him. His coal-black eyes have little hints of blue and purple in them just like real coal. Basically, he’s just awesome.

He may or may not become a holiday card this year, but he’ll definitely star in next year’s lineup. I was just feeling seasonal! And, you know, Lovecraftian. Because Christmas and unspeakable horrors just go together.

SnowCthulhu, 7″x5″ pen & ink and watercolor on paper.
