To Be An Artist


In Pastures of Heaven, Steinbeck describes one particular farm as “a poem by the inarticulate man.”

My grandpa’s tractors, his attention to detail, his tireless work, these might have been his poems. This zine is a tribute to him and his life.

“To be an artist, you don’t have to compose music or paint or be in the movies or write books. It’s just a way of living. It has to do with paying attention, remembering, filtering what you see and answering back, participating in life.”

– Viggo Mortensen (thx nitch).
