Artist Exclusives STEVEN LANG How long have you been creating? For 55 years, however, as a professional oil painter,18 years. Before that I owned a graphic design studio in the Silicon Valley, CA and was an illustrator for numerous agencies. Do you work in different mediums? Which is your favorite? Way back I started off in color pencil and dabbled in oil paints. I did a lot of watercolor and air brushing during that time as well, but I always preferred oil paints because it is such a forgiving medium. You can correct your mistakes easily and it does not affect the painting. 10 ART CHOWDER MAGAZINE
