About Russell
Walks
Although his original career goals included both becoming
bionic and joining the rebellion against the Empire, Russell Walks eventually
decided that his destiny lie along another path, and chose art school over
adventure. Since beginning his career as a professional illustrator, Walks has
created art based on licensed properties for a variety of clients, including
Lucasfilm, Paramount, Warner Brothers, and Marvel. Walks is also a successful
painter; his personal work has won both regional and national acclaim, and hangs
in private collections throughout the world. Walks only recently discovered the
"Whoniverse," and is extremely excited to be attending his first Doctor
Who convention.
