Sharpie Sherlock silliness by Amy Crook
Sharpie Week Redux continues with tentacles! You know I’d never skip your Tuesday tentacles.
This time @wyomingnot on Twitter asked me to draw something related to a fanfic where Sherlock is a genius pastry chef who wants to open an ice cream shop, and John is his faithful sidekick/store manager. The title is I believe the name of the shop, which refers to the ideal ice cream storage temperature in Celsius.
Or something, I don’t know. John! Sherlock! Tentacle Surprise ice cream! Really, do the details matter?

Nick Fury, Agent of Sharpie, sketch by Amy Crook
I’ve been busy and full of pollen and somehow I’m behind on art all of a sudden, so you get Sharpie Week Redux! All Sharpie sketches, all week. Today’s was at the request of @kdlb on Twitter, who asked for a weeble inspired by the Avengers movie. I couldn’t resist the chance to weeble-ify Samuel L. Jackson, and so, here we are.
Sharpie Week is one of the ways I trim back obligations when I’m overwhelmed. What’s your solution?

Green Sketch

Green Sketch by Amy Crook
Three shades of green pen and three of my favorite types of line work on a little page in my new sketchbook. I like the way the dark crosshatching fades to white, I’m going to have to use that in something, probably tentacles.
Happy Easter!

Harry Potter, ink sketch by Amy Crook
Another little sketch that went as a gift with some art. Harry always was fascinated with magic, and I like his expression, leaning back and admiring his Lumos.

Orange Face sketch

Orange Face sketch by Amy Crook
This is actually a virulent orange in my wee sketchbook, but by desaturating it a little bit, you can see some of the brushstrokes that a super-bright orange hides on a monitor. I sketched this with a sumi-e brush and the orange paint leftover from making my goldfish, using the pause screen on whatever DVD I was watching as a very loose reference.
I’m pleased that, although the paper buckled some, the paint didn’t bleed through onto the next page.

Tea Mug sketch

Tea Mug, sketch by Amy Crook
This little sketch christened my new pocket sketchbook! I drink my tea super cream-and-sugary (mmm half’n’half), so the white at the bottom is actually my drink. I didn’t let myself spend too long fussing over perspective or shading, so it’s got a funky slant I quite enjoy.
Have a cup on me this Sunday — what’s your favorite sort?

Grinning Whatever sketch by Amy Crook
I have no idea what he is, but he’s one of my favorite coloring book doodles in a while. He’s just so happy! And fuzzy! And evil!
