Russell likes to sketch using pencil or charcoal and has a keen eye for perspective. Architecture and ships—specifically the Burj Khalifa and the Titanic, respectively—are among his favorite things to draw, though he also does excellent characters, landscapes, and still life. He loves teaching art and has been asked at school to teach younger classes on several occasions.
Who or what inspires Russell to create?Everything! From cool characters to amazing architecture, from international landmarks to gargantuan ships, from landscapes to still lifes—there is not a single thing this kid can’t draw!
What is Russell's favorite art form?Sketching anything and everything! Whether using a reference image or drawing completely from memory, Russell’s eye for perspective, dimension, and detail are well beyond his nine years.
