Charles Stouff
Charles was born in 1971 and lived beside his Grandfather’s dairy farm. Being introduced to the agricultural population at an early age, he was often found wandering throughout the barn and pastures using his imagination. At an early age, Charles developed a passion for drawing the cartoons he watched on television. As the years passed Charles would cut out the comics in the newspaper and draw all the characters including: Ziggy, Hägar and Family Circus. He used to write his own captions and just imagine the glamorous lifestyle of the cartoonist (Yachts, supermodels, private jets, caviar). Charles would sometimes get into trouble at school for drawing charicatures of teachers as they taught. In his senior year of high school Charles created his first single-panel original cartoon. It was entitled “Domestic World” and was later changed to “The Food Chain.” This cartoon was influenced by The Far Side. Charles would freelance his cartoons to magazines and small newspapers around the country. Charles later developed a political cartoon entitled “Top Secret” and a comic strip entitled “The Carneez”. After over 900 original cartoons, Charles has put several of these designs into newly released books that include, Among Amish and The Food Chain. His newly released book entitled, Till the Cows Come Home, is his most cherished project to date that expresses his love for the game of baseball and his childhood memories of his Grandfather’s dairy farm. $25 Full color written and illustrated by Charles Stouff
