Candles Make it More Romantic

Candles Make it More Romantic, Sherlock fan art by Amy Crook

Candles Make it More Romantic, 7″x5″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper.

When Sherlock finally decided to go all-out for John and put candles on the table, he really put candles on the table. He starts to say, “I might have gone a bit…” but John interrupts with, “Angelo was right, Candles do make the table more romantic.”

A wonderful card for a Valentine or year round to show how nice it is to be loved just as you are.

Murder for Christmas

Murder for Christmas, a Sherlock parody comic by Amy Crook

Murder for Christmas, a Sherlock parody comic by Amy Crook

I’d worry for the day someone actually tries to give Sherlock a murder for Christmas (as does John), but Lestrade can only be happy that he’s jumping for joy instead of refusing to help.

If you’ve got a friend who’d appreciate a little murder for their holidays, send them a card from my Etsy shop.

Devil and Angel Bookmarks

Devil & Angel bookmarks, Sherlock parody art by Amy Crook

I sketched these as my art warm-up about 10 days ago, which turned out to be the day’s entire art output because I then entered printer tech support purgatory. Everything’s under warranty, but I could really stand to have had this fixed sometime last week.

I’m not sure why I felt the need to give Sherlock a tentacle tattoo, but as it looks adorable on him, I don’t think it matters. Horns inspired by a rewatch of Monsters Inc.

Hanged Man

Hanged Man, a Sherlock parody comic by Amy Crook

Hanged Man, a Sherlock parody comic by Amy Crook

Sherlock needed some data about upside-down men, so he chose to trap his subject rather than asking.

Sherlock: It’s for an experiment.

John: SHERLOCK!

Sherlock: I knew you’d never agree, so I set this up to get the data. The case depends on these results!

Sherlock seems to think that “it’s an experiment” excuses all sorts of reprehensible behavior.

This little comic is also a parody of the Hanged Man card in the tarot deck, though John’s legs are backwards from the traditional layout, and of course there is not usually an irritating detective measuring toes. I did keep in the usual primary colors, but swapped them around, giving John a red shirt instead of trousers, and putting the yellow shirt onto Sherlock instead.

Also, John has bee socks. Because reasons. (Bee reasons.)

You can send someone this delightfully weird comic on a card and make their day a little stranger, just buy one in my Etsy shop.

Sweetness, a Sherlock fan art sketch by Amy Crook

Square sketch #2 has my favorite couple to ship, John and Sherlock. Sherlock has snuggled up to John’s side to demand a bit of affection, rather like my cat does. Good thing John’s much more compliant than I am.

Sweetness, 4.25″x4.25″ pen & ink and pencil on parchment cardstock.

Boring Yorick, a Sherlock sketch by Amy Crook

Boring Yorick, a Sherlock sketch by Amy Crook

I doodled up this little Sherlock sketch last year to go in someone’s Christmas present (*waves*), and I thought perhaps today was a good day to share him with you.

Sadly, Yorick wasn’t even murdered, so Sherlock finds the whole thing deadly dull. As it were.

What You Deserve, a Sherlock comic by Amy Crook

What You Deserve, a Sherlock comic by Amy Crook

A wonderful friend and patron of mine (hi, C!) recently had a birthday, and since she’s already gotten my other Sherlock birthday cards, I drew her a new one! I decided to let John get one up on his friend here, though you’ll have to wonder what he’s found to make Sherlock’s eyes go that big and round.

The original is safe in its new home, but you can get a card for that very special friend of yours at my Etsy shop.
