DANG WES LANG

This past month Wes Lang had been staying at the Chateau Marmont, where is had been working on a series of drawings done on their paper stock. This series is one of my favorite bodies of work of his. A mixture of detailed illustration with a great punch line to sum up the whole piece. He will be having a sow at the hotel in June sometime. Will post the dates as soon as I hear.
I got a chance to meet up with him a couple of times while he was here. On my second visit I had him tattoo this death hand I had seen in one of his new drawings he had hanging on his wall. Had a great experience checking out his work environment and just hanging out with him, his lady and a couple of friends. One of the most down to earth people and all around great person.
