The Art of Sherlock Holmes
The Art of Sherlock Holmes is a totally unique experience. Imagine a dozen or more of the finest artists in the U.S. creating art for some the best new short stories written by some of the finest Holmes authors in the world. Each artist has envisioned their version of one story specifically selected for them. All stories and art in one large, hardcover, coffee table presentation volume. This first edition features artists from West Palm Beach, Florida.
The first book in the anthology is Derrick's "The Tale of the First Adventure," with an incredible art piece by Anthony Hernandez. You have to check out all the wonderful art and stories in this unique collection.

Now through June 3rd, you can see the art work from the book in person at The Ann Norton Sculpture Garden in West Palm Beach Florida. Here are two pictures of David Marcum, Phil Growick, and Brian visiting the gallery on a business trip. As you can see, they were working hard!
To promote The Art of Sherlock Holmes, Bits About Books is currently running a wonderful blog tour. I wrote an article about the development of my story "The Tale of the First Adventure" which you can read here. See the blog tour schedule below:
That's all we've got time for in this blog entry. Look for another post soon about Derrick's talk at The Denver Pulp Culture Con (formerly the Denver Comic Con) and our new essay collection, Sherlock Holmes is Everywhere!
