Christy’s artwork has been displayed in many galleries, numerous shows and in private collections throughout the States and the U.K. 

 Russ met his one and only, as a true high school sweetheart in 1978, and now they work together as a team. Both are avid kayakers and hikers with a great love for the outdoors, nature and animals. It allows them many unique situations to photograph and use as an inspiration for their art and for other projects, such as an up and coming sea kayaking calendar and a useful picture book.

Coming soon to a coffee table near you… Paddling Pleasures is an informative picture book for kayakers looking for quiet getaways. Lots of beautiful full color shots of the author’s favorite relaxing places for day and weekend trips. Secluded Northwest beaches and coves are described with details about launches, marine life, man-made and natural features and the surrounding points of interest. A great “coffee table” book that is a must have for those with a passion for kayaking.

Russ saw an advantage and opportunity to manufacture frames in-house which allowed more creativity in their product. Carved, burned and custom finished moldings were added to their fine art to produce stunning works of custom framed pieces.

BWA strives to bring to the public as high quality a product as possible. All materials used are archival, all frames are glued, underpinned and fully fitted for gallery presentation. Prints and cards are produced with the highest quality inks and papers for consistent products.
