100 Cats no.1-10
Tuesday, February 11th, 2025
A long, long time ago – okay, in the first quarter of 2023 – I did a big art project where I painted or drew 1 cat (almost) every day, until I had 100 cat paintings. It took me a long time to properly scan, process, and ready all those images for you, but believe it or not, they’re only just now ready to share here.
I shared the whole thing on Patreon as it was happening, but they’re used to my badly edited phone photos by now! I wanted these nicer for posterity, which ended up making them so, so late.
At some point I’d like to revisit this project with 100 birds, but for now, enjoy your first 10 cats!

Crescent Moon
Sunday, April 7th, 2024
Crescent Moon, 5″x7″ watercolor and pen & ink on paper, $250.
This little night scene is more my usual thing, though the cypress trees are evergreen and therefore look alive all year long. Their long shadows are subtle against the deep blue-and-purple sky, and there’s even a cat hiding among them to grace us with its presence.
Instead of corvids we have a little trio of batty bats flying past, which you can see in the detail photo.

Tea
Saturday, April 6th, 2024
Tea, 6″x6″ watercolor and tea on paper, $250.
Do you love tea? Because I love tea so much I made a zine about it.
These illustrations made up the bulk of the zine’s pictures, rendered in soft watercolor on a tea-dyed background. There’s green tea and black, loose tea and bags, in a simple celebration of the drink.

Crack of Dawn
Wednesday, April 3rd, 2024
Crack of Dawn, 6″x12″ watercolor on paper, $350.
Yeah, the title is a joke, but I also really love the egg-like glow around our shining light here. Is it the moon? Is it the sun? Who knows! That’s up to you, what you want to see floating up in that deep blue-violet sky among the stars.
This unusually sized painting will be perfect to fill that odd spot on your wall that needs a splash of color.

July 2022 Patreon sketches
Tuesday, April 4th, 2023
Plus a bunch of bonus corvids! I wanted to do some gestural corvids, hilariously unrelated to the poll earlier, just to keep up my practice of loose, interesting birbs.
July 2022 ACEO sketches by Amy Crook
Only 2 people actually asked for things in July, so we have:
- Jefferson, who asked for Iron Chef Klingon and gets deconstructed disgustingness (sold)
- a purple crow giving some side-eye (sold)
- a rainbow crow giving some serious side-eye (sold)
- some crows flying through a gorgeous sunrise, inspired by Shayla Maddox’s current photo project (pretty sure this one’s been claimed too)
- A bi pride sea turtle for Andria, the only piece to use an actual pen (for the purple bits) outside of the signature, heh (sold)
- and a fluffed-up blue corvid having a bloody red treat (sold)
I actually used references for everything but the food, though I googled Klingon names to give our chef his moniker. I also mentally wrote some weird fanfic in my head about this dish while doodling, so, uh. Enjoy the grossness?

June 2022 Patreon sketches
Thursday, March 30th, 2023
Not a ton of requests from June, so there’s a wee trio of cards. These are all the size of a standard playing card, known as ATC or ACEO for Artist Trading Card (when traded) or Artist Card, Edition Original (when sold). The more you know.
June 2022 ACEO sketches by Amy Crook
- Jefferson asked for “Cherry Festival”
- Eric asked for “gloom”
- R&A asked for “Do not sell the baby online!”
These were all claimed before they were even made, whee!
