Conversation Heart art prompts

After recovering from the foolishness of doing a daily sketch project and NaNoWriMo in a single month (my advice: don’t do that), I felt ready to tackle the month of love and sarcasm! I bought a bag of large conversation hearts, and have been choosing (and eating) one out of the bag every day. The whims of fate and candy have brought you these seven sketches.

Conversation Arts 1: Cutie Pie

Conversation Arts 1: Cutie Pie – $10

Q + tech = qt3.14.

Conversation Arts 2: On Fleek

Conversation Arts 2: On Fleek – $25

This gorgeous kitty’s tail is on fleek.

Snacks, personal space, and something exploding? The Twelfth Doctor’s best day.

Conversation Arts 4: XOXO

Conversation Arts 4: XOXO – $25

Lorelai Gilmore + coffee = OTP.

Conversation Arts 5: My Love

Sherlock + skull = love beyond death. Or at least after.

Conversation Arts 6: Soul Mate

Conversation Arts 6: Soul Mate – $10

Ron & Hermione, he’s smug and she’s not so sure about this soulmates thing.

Conversation Arts 7: Marry Me

Who could say no to a proposal like that?

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, sketch by Amy Crook

Abandoned Book for Kim, who was feeling melancholy

Death Does Netflix and Chill, sketch by Amy Crook

Untrue Love by Amy Crook, a Consulting Magic short

 

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.

Word Art, week 4+2

Monday, November 30th, 2015

November’s over, and I won at NaNoWriMo, hooray! I even managed a piece of word art every day through flu and freezing cold and fickle cats trying to sleep on my hands while I typed. So yay for finished projects!

I have had an inquiry about making a booklet of these — what do you think? Would you want a handmade book of weird words? It would be a lot of work to scan and format and print, but it might be fun to have the project preserved for posterity.

The days keep flying by, especially this week! I was sick and sleepy and pathetic, so I chose a lot of easy words. I’m feeling better now, though, and hope to get caught up on my NaNoWriMo words tonight (I’m about half a day behind now, a 100-word day really eats your lead).

Word Art, week 2

Sunday, November 15th, 2015

How are we already halfway through November? NaNoWriMo is going pretty well despite the pollen, which seems determined to turn my brains to mush. I decided to confine these to the same paper and orientation, but otherwise allow myself to do whatever felt right for each day, whether that’s ink art or comic doodles or a UV-glowing ghost.

Which one’s your favorite new (or old) word?

Word 8: Jentacular

Word Art, week 1

Sunday, November 8th, 2015

November is all about NaNoWriMo for me, with my goal this month to write 2000 words per day. I’m working on the third book in my Consulting Magic series, and at the same time I’ve set myself another challenge — drawing a word a day. I enjoyed Inktober so much I wanted to continue the daily art, so I thought the best way to warm up for writing was with more words! I’ll be rounding these up on Sundays, so enjoy them while they last.

Word 1: Deminition

Word 1: Deminition – sold

Word 2: Bibliophile

Word 2: Bibliophile – sold

Word 3: Susurrus

Word 6: Pluviophile

Word 7: Waldeinsamkeit

14641 words down, many more to go!
