We all woke up to the landmark SCOTUS decision that marriage rights were for all to enjoy- a beautiful day to be part of the system. Love should never be held back, in my opinion...
A few weeks back, while I was in Europe on tour, Neil sent me a drawing that that clever linesman Chris Riddell came up with. I sat down to take it in fully and felt a little diamond tear form.
"A world in which there are monsters, and ghosts, and things that want to steal your heart is a world in which there are angels, and dreams, and a world in which there is hope." -Neil Gaiman
Chris generously agreed to come up with a version painted in jewel tones, finishing the hope in pure gold. I couldn't be happier with the finished product.
Have you seen his work on the UK versions of Neil's GRAVEYARD BOOK & FORTUNATELY, THE MILK? He's a magician with a keen eye for the curvy humor of life. Plus he was just this June appointed the UK Children's Laureate..!
We are so honored, grateful and lucky to be collaborating with Chris.
I have sent the files to my printer here in Hollywood, who promises to do a brilliant job.
The prints will be 11" x 17" on a buttery creamy velvet stock and I am offering it at $25 for this June weekend. My printer says we should have them in about 8-10 business days, so please be aware this is a pre-sale. I will get them out as quickly as possible.
These prints will be sold unsigned. A limited edition run of 1500.
I will put the price up to $38.00 on Monday morning.
They will come to you in a super-sturdy tube made of recycled cardboard, which you can spray-paint silver and use as a robot arm.

A portion of the proceeds will benefit The Gaiman Foundation and The Comic Book Legal Defense Fund. Thank you for your support, loves, as always.
