Gaiman Pins and Buttons

Inspirational quote from a famous writer Neil Gaiman: “Sometimes you make up. Sometimes the fall kills you. And sometimes, when you fall, you fly”

Saint Gaiman

Hey! I’ve decided to do a series of portraits of people that influenced me as an artist and human being. It’s gonna be kind of my personal expression of those people and fictional characters. The fourth person is Neil Gaiman! My beloved author of short fiction, novels, comic books, graphic novels, audio theatre and films. I am a huge fan of The Sandman series, American Gods, Neverwhere, Anansi Boys and Stardust. He always reminds me that this world is a much more interesting place than the boring greyness of everyday life.

Husband runs off with a politician? Make good art. Leg crushed and then eaten by mutated boa constrictor? Make good art. IRS on your trail? Make good art. Cat exploded? Make good art. Someone on the Internet thinks what you’re doing is stupid or evil or it’s all been done before? Make good art.

Retro looking Good Omens

Quote by Neil Gaiman -"Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten."

Stop the apocalypse with style

The end is nigh

Do ducks have ears? Must do. That's how they hear other ducks.

We are on our own side

Coraline Neil Gaiman

I'm C.B. Smith I run a very new web series called "Taking a Page" where I cover novels and books to their film counterparts. This month I covered Neil Gaiman's American Gods. Link for it here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LFCshLfQTQ&t=2s As a fan of Neil Gaiman's work I've used the phrase "Gay For Gaiman" to describe my love for his body of work in the past and used the phrase in the video. I wanted to share that phrase here with you guys. Happy Pride Month and thanks for taking a page (shirt).

Crowley from Good Omens

If you need a reminder of your life's purpose.

Always loved Neil Gaiman but the season 2 of Good Omens just... no spoilers. Nevermind the season ending :'), really loved this still from episode 2 of Aziraphale and Crowley chilling together by the sea. Have always loved the metaphorical wings protecting each other scenes across the seasons, and with Crowley literally protecting Aziraphale in this scene, and the scene being perfectly like the others with the zoomed out camera of the demon and angel with their backs to us, thought that this deserved the wings of its own.

"An Angel who did not so much Fall as Saunter Vaguely Downwards" Eyyy, it's everybody's favourite fast-living demon, Crowley, in his serpentine form, ready to grace your shirts and more! Originally illustrated by me (jasminetwil) way back in 2019!
