I invited a few artists to create artwork inspired by Neil Gaiman's American Gods. Some of the illustrations are literal depictions in the book, while others are only loosely inspired by the concept. All of the artists are very talented, so please explore their sites to see (and buy!) more of their work. And I highly recommend this site as a guide to the gods appearing in the book.

ReplyDeleteJust started reading "American Gods" a few nights ago. I see now that there is a "Neil Gaiman preferred edition" which I intend to seek out. These images are amazing!! Love them all, but especially striking is Dean Reeves' piece. Outstanding.
ReplyDeleteI only wish I had the artistic talent to create my own interpreted drawings because these are fun to look at. The novel was amazing. I had no clue it existed until march of 2012 and I read it in a day.
