Charles Vess Brings You the Moon

Drawing Down the Moon:
The Art of Charles Vess collects decades of the artist’s unparalleled work
and is scheduled to be released by Dark Horse on December 23, 2009.

Charles Vess is one of the most revered artists in the field
of fantasy and comic art. The three-time Eisner Award winner has worked on some
of the most recognizable comic properties of all time, including Jeff Smith’s Rose and Neil Gaiman’s Sandman, a retelling of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, for which he
and Gaiman shared the prestigious World Fantasy Award.

For over thirty years Vess has positioned himself, through
his art, as the best fantasy illustrator in recent history.

 

Drawing Down the Moon:
The Art of Charles Vess collects decades of the artist’s unparalleled work
and is scheduled to be released by Dark Horse on December 23, 2009. The hardcover,
full-color, 200-page book costs $39.99.

 

But as a special treat, Dark Horse is happy to announce that
the entire book is now available on darkhorse.com for collectors, art connoisseurs,
and newly introduced fans to browse for free.

“This book has taken a bit over two years from the
completion of my initial layouts to actually seeing print,” said Vess.  “So, in an effort to make certain that
you know that the book will indeed be available this December, we are giving
you a sneak peak of the entire 200 pages.”

“Above all,” Vess continued, “there’s the unique opportunity
to view all the projects that you’d never have a chance to see except in a book
like this: a 16’ bronze sculpture, event posters for local organizations,
private commissions and previously unpublished paintings done just for the pure
pleasure of doing them.”

 

Vess’s art immerses readers into a place of such fantasy and
grandeur, one hopes to stay forever lost in the beauty. His masterful use of
paint and brush stand out in an age of digital design, harking back to the
golden age of illustration.

 

Dark Horse invites you to step into a realm of imagination
and wonder. Anyone interested is welcome to join the magical journey.
