I saw some plushies a bit like this in Japantown the other day, so I was inspired to scribble this little guy.

Look out! Rawr!

Sharpie Week: Golden Snitch

Sharpie Golden Snitch sketch by Amy Crook

My house guest has flown back to DC, and I’ve got one more day of vacation plans before it’s back to the grind. Actually there’ll be a little grind today, since I’ve got a teleclass, but we’re pretending that’s just not the case at the moment. Much like how we’re pretending that the above Snitch is actually round.

Also, my cats say hi, and want you to know that I’m never allowed to leave the house again.

This cheerful little trickster was by request of the wonderful patron who commissioned the Forest Dragon. He’s totally contemplating what mischief he can get into next.

Sharpie Week: Bashful Cuttlefish

Sharpie Bashful Cuttlefish sketch by Amy Crook

Prompted by the very houseguest who is keeping me in SF and away from my studio, I drew a bashful little cuttlefish hiding behind a shell. Don’t ask me about the spots, I don’t even know. He wanted color.

Sharpie Week: Polar Bear

It’s Sharpie Week!

I’m ridiculously tired, given that all I’ve done is run around after my house guest, while she finished the Escape From Alcatraz Triathlon yesterday. But then, she trained for the tri, and I’m a lazy antisocial hobbit.

Today’s request was from my BFF, who was on a glacier last week. Polar bear sez grr.

Sharpie Week: Shub-Niggurath

Shub-Niggurath Sharpie sketch by Amy Crook

Shub-Niggurath Sharpie sketch by Amy Crook

Sometimes called (or associated with, or… well, it is Lovecraft) the Black Goat of the Woods with a Thousand Young, Shub-Niggurath is one of Lovecraft’s more interesting creations. I admit I got a little bored after 3 young, but I’m sure the other 997 are around there somewhere. It’s a bit more loose than the rest of the Sharpie Week drawings, mainly because I didn’t feel like coloring it all in, but it’s sketch Saturday so I figure I can get away with it. This is just a preliminary weeble, anyway, though there aren’t really any descriptions to go on. I just looked up a black goat and tried to make it creepy, weeble-y, and cute. I mean, look at those floppy ears!

Sharpie Week: Jack Skellington

Jack Skellington Sharpie sketch by Amy Crook

This one’s all my doing! I was contemplating things I love but don’t draw much, and Nightmare Before Christmas is right at the top of that list. Jack’s looking a bit guilty because he thinks he ought to give Santa’s hat back, but he just feels so dapper in it!
