Living Legends

A series of portraits capturing todays contemporary artist from around the world.

Jon Francis Dragonette was one of two children born on September 7th 1979. Mother Nancy, impregnated by father John Dragonette, was unaware that she was about to have two children instead of one. Thanks to a few swift kicks, his twin brother Thomas easily forced Jon out of the womb. Upon arrival Jon spent many a day doing what most preemies do; eat, sleep, and s#*t. To this day not much has changed, except for the involvement of a camera into his tough daily routine.

Jon, unlike most squares, decided that he wanted to pursue a much different field of work. One with more meaning. One that depicted his ideas in a visual sense, not necessarily concerned with the fortune obtainable from being a huge art figure. Ok, enough with the art talk. This dude just really loves taking photographs, and it shows. He has an immense amount of work touching many different subjects, but all with a very unique style. His formula for excellent work is simple. Do what you love, and stick to what you know. Sounds impossible, but he's proven it to work.

Jon would love for you to check him out, and his work as well. Please feel free to contact him with any questions you might have.
