In Eagan Friday morning, crop artist Stan Herd was putting the finishing touches on his latest huge work. It's a 1.2-acre rendition of Vincent van Gogh's painting "Olive Trees."在伊根星期五的早上，“农作物”艺术家斯坦·赫德正为自己的最新力作——1.2英亩的文森特·梵高名作“橄榄树”-“画”上最后的几笔。
"It never looks like I want it to," he said. "I always know it could be much better. But I'm fairly satisfied with it."“这幅作品从来都不是我想的样子”斯坦·赫德说。“我一直都知道这幅画可以画得更好。但是我对它还是相当满意的。”
The original painting is part of the Minneapolis Institute of Arts collection. For the past six months, Herd has been at work on a parcel of land on the edge of the Thomson Reuters campus, planting, weeding and watering to bring the painting to life. It's part of the institute's centennial celebrations.原画作属于明尼阿波里斯市艺术学院艺术藏品。过去六个月以来，赫德一直就在汤森路透学院边际的一宗土地上劳作、种树、除草、浇水，赋予画作以生命的活力。这幅画作也是学院一百周年庆典的组成部分。
"I bit off a lot here, to try to pull this off," Herd said. "A few of the plants were eaten by deer, and a few were blown over. But that's the dance of nature."“我一直在这努力地坚持着，试图把这件事做成功，”赫德说。“栽种的植物一些被麋鹿吃掉了，一些被风给吹走了。但是那只是大自然的舞姿罢了。”
