Martin Grelle states that Sixes Born and Raised “…was done from a Cowboy Artists of America Trail Ride on the Dixon Creek, part of the Four Sixes ranch in 2012, as we headed out to gather cattle early one morning. The main cowboy is, I believe, Justin Bruton – one of two brothers and their dad, who all worked on the Sixes.”
