Follow along as fantasy artist Charles Vess works on one of his amazing paintings. LINK HERE
from his website, Green Man Press:
I thought that I would try to lift aside the curtain for you and reveal some of the mysteries of the thinking process that I make in producing a piece of art.
This, my first, full-fledged commission, “Companions to the Moon” began as an inquiry from an art buyer asking me if I would consider painting a piece like my iconic Stardust’ image for him. He had seen the painting at the previous San Diego Comic Con and had been disappointed when told that it wasn’t for sale. I love that particular painting, and knowing that I might be tempted to sell the piece at some point, I had given it to my wife as a gift and was just simply displaying it at my table.
Mr. Vess is known for his fantasy illustrations on Neil Gaiman’s Stardust, Jeff Smith’s Rose, and well as countless other projects.
