Description: PETER GROSS Original Art | BOOKS OF MAGIC Timothy Hunter CLIFF Commission | 1999 Peter Gross is the co-creator and artist of Vertigos Eisner nominated, NY Times Bestseller series The Unwritten, and co-creator and artist of American Jesus/Chosen with Mark Millar. He also illustrated two of Vertigos longest running series, Lucifer, and Books of Magic (including haven written 24 issues in the series). --- When I first commissioned this artwork, it was my wish to (a) pay talented artists to create cool, one-of-a-kind piece for me, and (b) pass this art down generationally to my kids. Despite my efforts and obvious love for the comic book medium--and the artistry behind it--I have come to the realization that my children do not share the same enthusiasm for my hobby. While a bit sad, I understand. The world is a different place now. As I get older (many of these pieces are from decades ago, under the banner of "the cliff guy" collection--see if you can find it on Wayback), and paired with this new, begrudgingly accepted reality, my attachment has lessened somewhat--but my desire for these to be passed on and enjoyed by others has not. I, therefore, am making these available for other comic art lovers to enjoy. Most of these pieces were created specifically for me (some personalized), others have not been available since they were first offered for sale by the artists or their reps--I tend to hang on to things for a long time. It is a mix of convention sketches (obtained in Seattle, Portland, San Diego, and a few from England) and take home commissions from the 1990s to 2000s; color, black & white, pencil, pen, ink, paint; lots of variety--every piece an original. I hope you find something you like. If you have any questions, please let me know and I will do my best to recall (did I mention I am getting old?). I typically package art in masonite, as I want it to arrive at your doorstep the way it left mine. I always insure the art (via USPS) to safeguard your investment as well. Thanks for reading and looking and (hopefully) buying! Sincerely, Walt Parrish :) Shipped & insured via USPS in protective mailer. Combined shipping available!
