Russell Tripp Art
American, 1924-2025
Russell Tripp (American, 1942-2025) enrolled in art classes at ten years old, beginning his path to become a professional artist from a young age. He went on to study at the Academy of Arts in San Francisco, graduating in 1964. Tripp was a prolific artist, despite the level of detail in his pieces. During the height of his career, he was selling paintings as quickly as he could produce them.
