While the video contained in the following jump is authored by a photographer, I see many parallels within his story to those in the sign trade -especially the lone craftsman or two-three person shops. I’m posting this here in the hopes that its digested in its entirety; yes things are tough economically not only in the US, but globally; yes for those in the upper portions of northern hemisphere, cabin fever is in full force, but, life is good and blessed if we let it be (or chose to see may be a better way to state it)! This cinematography, the spoken word, the music; they all combine to create a powerful, impacting, and insightful look into an “artist”.
While watching, I “see/hear” some folks from here in Letterville and Letterhead friends thought its Zack speaking. Life - we make out of it what we want.
