Russ
Russ Coleman is a sculptor, artist, and creative force who transforms stone, concrete, and paper into powerful stories about the world around us. With roots in the hands-on craft of a Monumental Mason and letter carver, Russ honed his skills through years of graft in the stone and construction industries before taking his talent to the Fine Art program at Kingston upon Hull in the early 1990s.
For over 25 years, Russ has brought his bold vision to public art projects across the UK, creating works that weave together humanity and the landscapes we inhabit. His sculptures are a love letter to the timelessness of stone, the strength of concrete, and the fleeting beauty of life itself. Each piece invites you to pause, reflect, and connect with the deep rhythms of geological time and the brevity of human experience.
Russ’ current 1 Million Drawings project is an audacious artistic journey that captures the raw essence of creativity one drawing at a time. This epic mission isn’t just about filling pages—it’s a celebration of curiosity, exploration, and the endless possibilities of the human imagination.
Whether carving monumental stoneworks or sketching his way toward 1 million drawings, Russ Coleman’s art is an invitation to see the extraordinary in the everyday and to find beauty in the balance between simplicity and depth.
