| Russell Widner |
Bio![]() Russell Widner It was quite challenging for Russell growing up in show business, especially considering he always took the back seat and stood in the enormous shadow of his older more successful brother. Russell competed quite extensively with his brother on all aspects from sports through fighting over scraps of food at the dinner table. But, in the end Russell was bequeathed the family art talents and excelled at junkyard sculpture and graffiti. Russell has won numerous neighborhood awards for his remarkable talents at turning junk into collections of art. As Russell grew older, he took an interest in tattooing and began "marking up" the other members of the "Gang". By combining his natural artistic talents with the pain and suffering of growing up in a junkyard, Russell has transformed himself into a pioneer of ghetto tattooing. Russell enjoys all styles of tattooing, but especially ghetto rat and hood-style pieces. Studio: Westfield Brandon Mall
