Shawn E Russell – Designer

Hi! I'm Shawn! I'm an award winning Wildlife and Fantasy artist specializing in creating highly detailed naturalistic depictions of animals and people with a supernatural twist. I craft my images using traditional mediums like graphite, ink, ballpoint pen, watercolor, oil paint as well as digital techniques. Living and working among the abundant nature of Indiana USA I am inspired by nature, film, the art community and scuba diving.My work has been recognized for publication in Spectrum 26: The Best In Contemporary Fantastic Art for 2019, was nominated as a Chesley Award Finalist in 2018, and a Bronze Award recipient in Infected By Art Volume 6.I've worked with independent board game creators, food& beverage packaging, as well as private art collectors and commissioners. I offers my personal work for sale online and at comic/fantasy conventions across the US where I get to connect with fans and collectors in person. I also love giving a visual voice to my clients' creative projects.
