three black & white drawings
We never did find the owner(s) of the originals of these three drawings. I had hoped to, as the LA Musuem of Contemporary Art wanted to include them in a huge exhibition of fine art in 2011. Alas, their location remains a mystery, and the show has come and gone. Thanks to all who tried to help find them.

I don’t know who owns the original of the bottom illustration, but it was done for The Portfolio of Underground Art, which I edited. It was published in 1982 by Schanes & Schanes, which was the portfolio imprint of Pacific Comics in San Diego. There were 13 plates, each signed and numbered by the artist. Limited-edition of 1,000 portfolios.

The three drawings posted are superb–I’ve never seen such detailed stuff by S Clay Wilson before. Although I’m saddened to learn of his injury, It’s heartening to see the love and friends that are in his life.

S.Clay Wilson, I’m in hopes this finds you well. I would like to thank you for your inspiration. I too purchased a stack of underground comix as a youngster (14 yrs old) in a head shop in Old Town section of Chicago. I’ve spent endless hours drawing with pen and ink. I had dreams of being an illustrator. I wish there was a happy ending to that story but there is not. I still have that stack of 25 cent comix, dog eared an yellowed. I still make reference to Star Eyed Stella, Checkered Demon, and Captain Piss Gums. Get Well my friend I’ve never met. I love the picture of you with my other heros Crumb, Spain, and Paul Mavrides. Your Truly Wes Reynolds
