With a creative career spanning more than 30 years, Russell Jones has worked as a creative director and writer in several leading Sydney advertising agencies
This rich background in graphic design, copywriting, and visual communication informs his fine art practice today — where traditional sensibilities meet modern surrealism.
His latest body of work, titled "Dreams In Wait", is a series of photographic images born from a longing to escape the noise of the modern world and rediscover moments of calm and gentleness
Each image presents a quiet invitation: a figure, a form, a feeling — not quite real, yet deeply familiar
These are not so much figures as they are states of being — visual meditations that create a space for stillness, where the viewer can pause, exhale, and let the noise fall away.
Tropical Totem Photographic Gallery is Russell’s sanctuary of stillness and imagination
