Art by Richard R. Russo In 2010 Richard R. Russo began to evolve the first series of paintings of several. They debuted during the Clifton Day Festival. This series was relegated to historic homes and businesses of Clifton.  The painting technique starts with acrylic paints, however these paints are handled just as one would paint oils. Colour's are modeled and layered with gloss water-based varnish glazes until the total painting is complete. The result is a painting that reflects rich colour and brilliant luminosity that envelopes intense real-life representation. The process takes time and delivers nothing short of that of an oil medium. Most paintings on this page are available for sale. Please feel free to call for pricing if you are interested.

SOLD Dwayne Nitz, Co-Mayor of Clifton : "Many thanks for the painting you've brought to our home. Our family has put a lot of love into this house over the past 10 years from restoration, to renovation, to additions, etc... It's funny, I started renting this house in 1997 and was sad to move out in spring of 2000. The day I moved out, my wife (then girlfriend) said, "You'll be back, you belong in this place". I thought it was a nice thing to say at the time, but it proved to be more prophetic. We ended up buying it in 2001, getting married, adding on with our own hands, and raising a family within. Everyone values home - but we have a rich history with ours and your painting distills so much of what we feel
