Russell Young’s Fame Series features portraits of iconic figures from Hollywood, the music, and the fashion worlds. Young has said that his lifelong love of popular culture inspired him to create the Fame Series. He wanted to create a series of paintings that celebrated the icons of our time. The paintings are not just portraits, however. They also celebrate the power of music, film, and fashion to shape our culture.
