Artwork Description

Influenced by the recent trend of questioning, sometimes removing, grandiose tributes to sometimes less than squeaky clean "public figures".

Artist Bio
Photo of Russel Comte
Russel Comte 14 artworks | 1 Sold

I spent most of my working life working in computer game graphics, and now enjoy the reality of paint, brush and canvas.
I am interested in light, shadow, shape, color, and form.
I derive my inspiration from my perception of beauty.
