Colt Prehm is a fine art painter, and tattooist, working out of Santa Fe, New Mexico. His portraits are exquisite and capture his subjects perfectly; proving once and for all that photography (though an art form in itself) is still nowhere as emotive as the paint brush and canvas. Colt’s landscapes and still-lifes are equally as beautiful. But still for me, one of the most amazing of Colt’s talents, is to invoke the feeling in the viewer, the belief you aren’t looking at a 21st century artisan but one of the old masters of yore. I caught up with Colt recently to find out more about the man behind these masterpieces. - Trent Aitken Smith
