Commissions are an integral part of Brian Russell's artistic mission. They are undoubtedly the most difficult aspect of being a professional artist: maintaining the integrity of the work while meeting the goals of those commissioning a site specific sculpture, working to budget, timelines, architectural standards, review committees and public criticism. Brian Russell has more than 20 years of experience producing a huge range of custom items. Today, he creates sculpture for public and private situations, satisfying both patron and artist.
