Drawing and Storytelling

I just found this great video of one of my favorite artists, Pascal Campion.  In the video Pascal talks about drawing as a way to tell stories.  To him drawing is really just a means to an end.  The real power of drawing comes not in the perfection of the drawing but in the ability to communicate a story with that drawing.
