While driving on a rural Kentucky back road, I noticed a farmer stripping tobacco through the window of an old stripping room. I stopped to help him strip a few stalks, and at the same time was trying to get enough nerve up to ask him to pose for either a drawing or photo. I wanted to record how tobacco was once hand tied and put on a stick. From the first visit we became friends and often talked about how growing and selling tobacco had changed over the years. I wanted to preserve a part of tobacco farming history that is slowly disappearing. This farmer's looks reminded me of my own grandfather. Steve White
