Bead and Braid
Wednesday, January 21st, 2015
For Wednesday we have an adorable moment that needs no words, with Thorin braiding Bilbo’s hair while Bilbo holds a suspiciously dwarven bead to go in it. This is one of those simple images that can be as much about friendship as anything else.
You can pick up this card for your favorite dwarf or hobbit here in my Etsy shop.

Timeless Love
Tuesday, January 20th, 2015
Second in our Valentine week, it’s Doctor Who! The Tenth Doctor stands in front of a glowingly mysterious halo of Circular Gallifreyan.* Above him it says, “Gallifreyan has 22 tenses, and I love you in every one.”
You can pick up this lovely card in my Etsy shop, and give it to some one who adores the Doctor, and hopefully you as well. Or just keep it for yourself and imagine David Tennant’s voice when you look at it. Whatever.
Timeless Love, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker.
*Spoiler: It doesn’t say anything! Artistic license won out over making real words.

Missing You
Monday, January 19th, 2015
It’s Valentine week here on the blog, because you may not like it but Valentine’s Day is less than a month away, and I’ve got a bunch of new cards in the shop that are good for friends, significant others, and all manner of loved ones. Well, nerdy loved ones, anyway.
Here we have Sherlock sitting in his chair, thinking so hard he’s whited out the world around him with observations. His thought bubble says, “Even when I don’t notice you’ve gone, I still miss you.” You can get this card for someone who loves you back even with all your quirks in my Etsy shop.

Box of Hearts
Sunday, January 12th, 2014
When Cthulhu gives you a big box of hearts, he really gives you… hearts. Ew. They may be small and squishy, but he finally found a way to show his love!
The card delightfully frames the image with the words:
“Cthulhu wanted to give you his* hearts
*not all hearts dedicated to Cthulhu before acquisition”
You can give your love a Valentine this year from my Etsy Shop. Assuming they’re the sort to be wooed by, well, this.

Shrimp-Crossed Lovers
Saturday, January 11th, 2014
The fates are conspiring to keep these two lovers apart, but they’ve used their shrimp treats to express their devotion. Will someone buy them both and put them in the same tank, or are they doomed to live forever alone?
You can get a Valentine at Etsy to show that long-distance love how much you miss them. With shrimp.

Portal Valentine
Sunday, January 6th, 2013
For Sunday, rather than a sketch I’ve got my last Valentine, which has no original art at all. I created the heart-shaped “portals” in Illustrator and the put the card together on the computer, so the card is the only way to express your geeky love to your other half.

Second Breakfast
Saturday, January 5th, 2013
Bilbo’s got a whole second breakfast set out, with bread and cheese, apples and tea and of course a nice hot plate of eggs, sausages and fried tomatoes. But he wants you to know that he loves you just as much as the meal!
This warm, cheerful card will help show your love for the Tolkien geek in your life, or just someone who appreciates a good second breakfast as much as any hobbit.
Second Breakfast, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic markers on paper, original nfs (sold).
