Bio
Russ is an award-winning Canadian contemporary realist painter and illustrator, with a focus on faces and figures. His work is traditionally hand-drawn & painted using a variety of mediums including acrylics, oils and coloured pencils.
He is an unabashed movie enthusiast (ie. film geek) and the art and craft of cinema has always been a big source of inspiration for his art and illustration work.
He lives on Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada with his wife, son, and their rambunctious German Shepherd rescue dog.
