The original owners of this original drawing bought from me at the Pike Place Market in Seattle back in 1981. It was recently resold in the secondary market, and the new owner has just gifted it to the great Stephen King!
How super cool is that!
The drawing was done as as assignment at the University of Washington School of Art - The assignment was to create a work in “response to a book or literary figure.”
