editor’s note
The idea for Pictura Journal came about in a dim midwestern kitchen during tornado season. It took a few years to get here, but I’m incredibly proud to present an inaugural issue full of diverse perspectives and vibrant storytelling. The response to our first call for submissions was surprising, humbling, and beyond anything I could’ve hoped for. Thank you to all the editors, contributors, and readers who made this possible.
