Charles Vess
Artist Statement
I believe in the rock as my protagonist.
I believe in the tree as my protagonist.
I believe in the wind as my protagonist.
I believe that the landscape that fills any visual story that I set down on paper, lives and breathes and will ultimately spill past any arbitrary marked border that I set for the viewer. It is as important of a character in the story that I’m telling as any humans that wander through those same aesthetic spaces.
