RUSSELL GORDON
| "Plover on an Oyster Shoal" |
Russell Gordon was born in 1968 in Maryland. He began drawing at an early age. He says "In those days in school you could read or draw as soon as you were finished with an assignment so I learned that the benefit of doing well in class was the privilege of being left alone to draw. I loved drawing and found art to be the best way to record what I saw in nature and to express ideas and emotions."
