Art for Dads and Grads

We have a great selection of gallery canvas prints of paintings by Russell Thomas, perfect as gifts for Father's Day or Grad. All of them come on 1.5" stretcher bars and are ready to display. Net proceeds from the sale of prints allows us to support a broad range of community, charity and humanitarian causes.

Thanks to our many clients, in recent weeks we've been able to support organizations and causes like the MS Society, United Way, Shane Daye and Keith Nash Memorial Foundation, Heartland Youth Center, Christina Gordon School, Sister Mary Phillips School, Fort McMurray Composite High School, and Bracelets For Buildings, just to name a few.

Among this selection are paintings being offered as canvas prints for the very first time. Also, there are a couple of limited edition pieces that are extra special. We also have a selected number of original works.

GST will be added to the final sale price of all items.

Russell Thomas began creating wild colour portraits in Birdsong Studio (Fort McMurray) in 2014. His late career dive into painting has combined his passion for portraiture with his interest in giving back. Live paintings, painting donations and the sale of prints have helped multiple charities. In recent years, families in rural Cambodia moved into new homes, funded by the sale of paintings and prints through a charity called Bracelets For Buildings.

In addition to doing commissions for clients from across Canada and the U.S., Russell enjoys following his creative instincts and producing work that is made available through his Russell Thomas Art Facebook page and his Instagram account (@russellthomasart).

Heather Thomas is co-owner of Birdsong Studios. She has been exploring abstract art over the past few years and has found a unique "voice" using a broad range of materials and methods. She has become an artist in her own right and works in the studio alongside Russell almost every day. You follow her Instagram account @heatherthomasart.

Birdsong Studio is now located in High River, Alberta.
