Lawrence artist Ben Dory brings new life to simple pen and ink. While he frankly admits "black and white is what I do because I'm no good at color," his new works manage to feel psychedelic. Ben joins us to talk about his approach to art, the sociopolitical aspects within his pieces, the scene in Lawrence and nurturing local culture.
His new show opens Monday at the Pig.

By the way Ben pours at least the 3rd best pint of PBR in town at the Tap Room.
