And some variations:

Oh huh! I hadn't realized I didn't post this one here on Tumblr! I finished this study in early March and have plans to have it be one of 3 pieces to go together 🙂‍↕️

It may be that you are not yourself luminous, but that you are a conductor of light. Some people without possessing genius have a remarkable power of stimulating it.

[ID: Digital painting, a recreation of one of Leyendecker's Interwoven Socks ads, of a gentleman sitting in a wooden chair before a wooden desk, clutching some envelopes in hand. Instead, it's Dr Watson as played by David Burke, and there's an assortment of chemistry vials on the desk as well as a microscope.

Watson's in a light suit and has a yellow flower pinned to his lapel. The chair he sits in is a swivel one. He sits before a solid coral background. /end ID]

Arthur Conan Doyle was born 155 years ago.

There are 55 Sherlockian cakes in my queue.

One of the finest and most beloved Watsons ever to grace the screen has passed away. David Burke was 91 years old, just shy of his 92nd birthday, and he is survived by his wife Anna Calder-Marshall and his son Tom Burke.

By all accounts, he was a gentleman and a wonderful human being. He could have stayed on to play Watson much longer, which would have made many of us very happy, but he chose to leave the show to be nearer to his family, especially since Tom was very young at the time.

His was not the first intelligent and competent Watson, but this version marked a turning point in mainstream depictions, from comedic sidekick to a hero in his own right.

RIP, dear sir. You will be missed. Thank you for everything.

I have regrettably finished all of Granada and so as an excuse to rewatch it immediately, I decided to make a painted collage of different scenes from A Scandal in Bohemia.

Portable Sherlock Holmes Mystery - Final Problem/Empty House combination. I still have to do some cosmetic things to the box itself and reattach the hardware, but all the fun stuff is done. On the left is Reichenbach falls, up top on the right is Watson's office, and below is the sitting room of 221b.

Here's a better picture of the furniture for Watson's office. The pile of clothes and hair in the chair is Holmes's disguise, and I made the books he brought and left space for them on the bookcase. It was fun to make that exam table! There's a stethoscope on top, but you can't really see it.
