I just love this House Portrait, with it's striking blue colors against the yellows and reds of the foliage! Such a wonderful painting.Enjoy,Russell 

David Malkin had us create this stunning House Portrait for his clients. It is just wonderful how the winding path leads up the house. With it's peaked roofs and it's stunning blue colors it looks like a home straight out of a fairy tale.Enjoy the portrait,Russell

One of the most important aspects to a stunning painting is the manipulation of how the light falls. Painting is essentially the sculpting of light on the page.And this portrait captures it perfectly.Enjoy the portrait,Russell 

I am very proud of this House Portrait with the bright yellow and stunning green forest in the background. It makes a very dynamic portrait! Enjoy the painting,Russell

"Cherry Blossoms"One of my favorite times of the year is when the Cherry Blossoms are in full bloom. And this portrait perfectly portrays that. With the cherry blossom tree proudly showing itself off in the front corner of the portrait.Enjoy the painting,Russell 

Lynda Mackie of Sutton in Winnipeg commissioned this house portrait for her clients.I just love the simplicity of this home, a small rancher proudly displaying it bright yellow. Shouting out "look at me!". A wonderful portrait :-)http://www.lyndamackie.com/
