De Lint, who according to Wikipedia is also a poet, musician, artist, folklorist as well as an author, writes "mythic fiction" and "urban fantasy" sometimes set in the mythical city of Newford, which has always reminded me of Asheville.
Vess illustrated Neil Gaiman's novella Stardust, which was made into a movie that's still playing around Asheville. He's the artist who shared the controversial 1991 World Fantasy Award with Gaiman, in which the award for Best Short Story went to a comic book Vess had illustrated.
