My dad, Nelson Russ has painted since he was young. He usually uses watercolours and here are a few works he has done recently. The old church is in Somerset, England, and is where my ancestors Job Russ and Elisabeth Satherly married in 1841 when he was 22 and she 17. They then migrated out to New Zealand. Apologies for the glass reflection in the top image.

So I are then an English Kiwi. I believed you are Russian. Sorry!
Well, russ does mean 'little russian' in the dictionary, so maybe further back my ancestors were russian!
