ABOUT

RUSSELL ERWIN
This portfolio site includes a representative sampling of my art and craftsmanship over the past 30 years. See the drop down menu links above.  There is also a contact form and FAQ section below.  

​Though primarily known for commissioned mural and decorative work, I'm increasingly doing easel sized paintings for gallery sale.  
​
Since receiving a Master of Fine Arts degree from the New York Academy of Art in 1990, I've been a full time working artist and/or art teacher.  I have recently relocated from Houston, Texas to Fort Myers, Florida.

FAQs


  • What is your education?
I have both an undergraduate and graduate degree in Fine Art, from the University of Houston and the New York Academy of Art respectively.  This along with various courses of professional development and 30+ years of work experience has given me a strong skill set and knowledge basis in my field.

  • Do you teach?  
Yes.  I have taught both full and part time at levels ranging from Middle School, High School, University and professional development workshops.  

  • Do you show in galleries?  
Not yet.  I am creating increasingly more independent work for exhibition and sale, so that should begin sometime soon. Despite having generated significant income from my commissioned work for decades now, I am considered an ‘outsider’ artist as I do not yet have a substantial track record within the gallery system.  

  • What sort of commissions do you seek?
Murals, portraits, site specific pieces and off beat projects are all most welcome.  I enjoy doing things that are creative, collaborative and socially impactful. I have done a lot of projects that involve a combination of fine and applied art in collaboration with design professionals or clients directly.  I'm currently teaching full time though, so scheduling is important.
