“His skin was hot, but Linus wasn’t afraid of being singed and blackened. Arthur would never allow it.”

Fire animation under the cut!

“Do you like to dance?”

“I don’t… know. I think I might have two left feet, honestly.”

“I highly doubt that.”

So pleased to finally share this commission for Pride Book Crate’s July box (@pridebookcrate on IG & Twitter), which was converted into both a print and a fuzzy cushion cover (which is cozy as heck, omg I love). It’s been SO exciting to see people posting their unboxings, and I’m delighted so many folks are happy with my contribution! They had requested just Arthur & Linus, so I drew inspiration from the farewell party and dressed them in a style to match the soundtrack (Nat King Cole 😭). And then, I couldn’t leave out the children, so, in the framework, you’ll find wee references to their characters. 💙

“When something is broken, you can put it back together. It may not fit quite the same, or work like it did once before, but that doesn’t mean it’s no longer useful.”

- Linus, The House in the Cerulean Sea by T.J. Klune

Special birthday art of one of our favorite scenes from THITCS for my dear @argylefetish / @penpanoply (without whom I might never have read this book)! She’s not only a handlettering master and my giveaway collaborator, but also just the most genuinely positive and warm person I’ve ever met. Like Linus, she is too precious to put into words, and I’m so grateful she’s a part of my life.

One of my favorite relationships in The House in the Cerulean Sea by T.J. Klune is between sprites Zoe and Phee (the mentor and the mentee). As Arthur Parnassus’ right hand person and integral part of the Marsyas family, Zoe does her best and is universally adored. 🧚🏾‍♀️

I admittedly got a bit wibbly drawing this one. There’s something so lovely about Zoe’s dynamic with all the kids, but especially with Phee, and it hit me right in the feels.

(Linus and Arthur are coming. But first: Talia, Chauncey & Lucy! :D)
