My name is Ash Russell. I am an artist living in the Twin Cities. I have always believed that the reason we live is to love, create, enjoy each other's company, and support one another. I have dedicated my life to helping animals and creating art that makes me and others around me happy.

 

I have been drawing and painting animals for as long as I can remember. My favorite thing is creating custom pet portraits whether it be watercolor, hand-drawn, or digital. 

​

I am very passionate about the non-profit animal rescue I co-founded, MN Pocket Pet Rescue. Our goal is to provide education, training, support, rescue, and adoption for small animals and their owners.

​

Here are some other things that rock my socks off: knick-knacks, tattoos, bright colors, cartoons, naming things, making up songs, and literally anything that I deem as "cute."
