Steven Universe premiered 10 years ago today so I had to make some Cookie Cats! (I couldnā€™t find my original Cookie Cat cookie cutter that I made way back in the summer of 2013 so I made a new one.)

Well dang, I guess picking Tom for the Hierophant/High Priest (wielder of the ā€œtriple cross,ā€ no less) fits even better now. Especially since he and the High Priestess are staying together. How sweet.
I remember thinking that the Waite-Smith Hierophant card already looked like Tom (and it really kind of does...), but setting him as that also helped (in my mind at least) to solidify Shiv as the High Priestess, and if Kendall ā€œNumber 1 Boyā€ Roy was going to be the first card in the deck - The Magician - then Shiv needed to be the number two card in the deck - The High Priestess.

I am so not ready for the Succession finale tonight.
I didnā€™t manage to properly pre-grieve by finishing the tarot cards but hereā€™s a collection of some of the sketches I did way back when I was working on the first ten of them (including a few of the warm-up sketches I posted previously and a peek at the two cards I was going to hit next).
I have a strange, deep love for this show (it makes me go weird, as it fully intends) so I do still hope Iā€™ll come back to this someday - I have all 22 of the major arcana cards roughed out and even a few bonus minor arcana cards. (Also, early last year I did some tests toward redoing the full set digitally (hence the cleaned-up linework/color experiments for Ken and Shiv in the middle there) so Iā€™d probably do a digital restart if/when I do get back to it).
Maybe if they announce a spin-off show or if I just suddenly have more time to draw againā€¦
Here, have some close ups:

Happy(?) season finale day! Have some number one boy and number one/only daughter tarot cards.
Hereā€™s a link to the first four.
Iā€™ve also been posting these on twitter so hereā€™s a link to the twitter thread.

Cousin Greg - The Fool
Ewan - The Hermit
Logan - The Emperor
Waystar | Royco - The Tower
The depraved business family show falls pretty neatly in line with the major arcana so I had to do some Waite-Smith inspired fan art.
I have the other 18 sketched out as well soā€¦ there might be more to come if I can get around to doing the full drawingsā€¦

Hereā€™s the poem:
Still Life Is there some point where we choose this? These very days, say "yes, I'll do this"? Endlessly it's all been done before; Was right now what I just wanted more? Those cherry peaches did not tempt me; Thousands of years went by so empty. The watermelons that were star-beamed Still were not that of which I dreamed. But if they did and also if they were, If I was held or if I was returned, All that I really know is here and now - The past did live and so will we somehow.
I wrote a poem back in March at the start of being in lockdown, then later felt like making it into a song. I ended up with something pretty gloomy sounding so I also tried out a sillier take on it. The gloomy version starts at 00:08 and thenĀ the silly version starts at 01:52.Ā

I filled the whole sketchbook! Started filling it out just after midnight the morning of October 1st and just finished up after midnight this morning (October 31st).
For anyone curious to read my full inktober short story - 1 story told across 31 parts/31 different character POVs - but without having to suffer through reading my cursive, hereā€™s a link to a pdf of it where itā€™s all typed up. (The story was inspired by a dream I had where demons were using the guise of filming a horror movie on a big estate with a cool old house while they were actually using the place to summon more demons.)
For anyone whoā€™d want the added challenge of having to read my cursive, here are links to all 31 hand-inked parts:
