Russell Robbins
Digital Artist
Russell "Rusty" Robbins, Loma Rica, CA
Hello! I've had many jobs in my life, but my passion is art, 3D graphics and digital visual effects. I've had the pleasure of seeing the advance of the technology since the 80's and finding a place in it. I've served as an animator since the early 90's, attending art school, studying my craft, helping small productions, and earning my Master's degree. I've taught community college animation classes and overseen labs in digital art and 3D modeling. While at home, my wife often asks me for help with her children's books. Together, we write and illustrate stories from her imagination.
