Abstract
This digital image shows two portraits. One a shoulder-and above image of a cowboy. The brim of his hat is red, and the top of the hat has a rose-motif with a black background. The white band between the brim and the top of the hat has red writing that reads, "J.K.E.M." The cowboy's face has a mix of colors, ranging from blue to red to black to white. Around his neck is wrapped a bandolier and a revolver. Below this, he appears to be wearing a leather jacket with an American flag motif on the front. The second portrait is a Native American man. His face is shaded with blue, yellow, red, tan, white, and black. White text on his forearm reads, "1831." Various motifs combine on his torso--an eye, clouds and sky, stars, and feathers are all components. In the background of both portraits, one will find multi-colored circles on a white background. In the bottom-right corner of the portraits, the artist's signature can be found. It reads, "ERWIN 2017."
