The Frontier Spirit This portrait explores a gritty, cinematic "Western" aesthetic. It captures Joey Montes in a moment of stoic reflection, donning a weathered cowboy hat and heavy leather jacket. The lighting creates deep shadows and highlights the rugged textures of the beard and fabric, evoking the timeless, resilient spirit of the American frontier. It is a nod to the classic cowboy archetype—serious, grounded, and ready for the wild.

In loving memory of my beloved wife Dawne. This portrait captures her unbreakable spirit, those piercing blue eyes, and the strength she carried every day. Gone but never forgotten – she was my rock, my partner, and my heart. Rest in peace, my love. 💔
