Today marks a year since I drew this. It's still my favorite experience that I've had on bluesky. The reactions and kind words helped me find a confidence in the art I make and I started pushing myself to learn more. Thanks again @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com for sharing your lovely little story. 🙂
I loved this and wanted to create a little comic for it. This is how I imagined the exchange going. I hope you like it @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com ☺️

This is probably one of the best things I've seen on mastodon and bluesky! Amazing work, great sketch, great colours. But most of all it's full of emotion, warmth, fantasy and joy! Thank you for the feelings :3 Keep creating!!! :D

thank you so much for the kind words!! 🥹 p.s. I'm not on mastodon, though, did you see it there as well? 😅

No no no. I haven't. Including the things I have seen there, yours here is still one of the best! Is it ok to share it on mastodon? With link to your profile here ofc. But I'll probably have to copy-paste your drawing. :/

for sure, please do, and if you don't mind also sharing the quote-post as a screenshot with Neil's original post in view, I'd love for the original interaction to be evident. 🙂

and thank you so much for asking first 🙂

No need to thank me. It's what everyone should be doing :) This is what I'll use along with a copy of the sketch itself, along with a link to your post for those that have bsky

Just here to echo all of the comments above. This is incredible. But I can’t think of any higher compliment than having a copy hanging in Neil’s son’s room.

Thank you so much. And I agree. It’s one of those things I have a hard time believing is real. 🥹

I hadn't seen this before today, and it's amazing, so I'm really glad you shared it again!

I cannot remember the last time I was moved by a singular drawing in the way this just moved me upon seeing it for the first time. I very much want a print of this to frame and hang in both of my children's rooms.
