“To live and die with Nathaniel by his side would be an awfully big adventure.” - THE SUN AND THE SHADOW by Ilya Ellis

When Pride Book Crate approached me with a commission of a scene from an upcoming queer sequel to/retelling of Peter Pan, I about lost my mind. I have been low-key obsessed with J.M. Barrie’s tale since I made it the subject of my master’s thesis, and hell YES it sounded like a dream commission!

This art depicts an older Peter Pan with his friend-to-lover Nathaniel in Neverland in a moment evocative of JM Barrie’s Peter visiting Wendy at the window. I hope you enjoy it, and enormous thanks to Pride Book Crate and Ilya Ellis for bringing me aboard to draw it!
