And that’s one of the great parts about this genre: Each person comes to it in their own unique way, and each version of the West is authentic to the person who experienced it. Looking through this issue, I see authentic experiences from every artist, whether it’s from Troy Collins’ depictions of the land and trees, Billy Schenck’s…
