Russell Irwin is a nationally celebrated artist who brings to his work a great love for the human story. "Faith, Hope, Love" is a work of art created exclusively for Good Life Gifts, and is featured in a matted print, a set of 8 note cards, and a gift basket. Russell's work reveals the skill and ingenuity of a world class artist and the captivating visual narratives of a master story teller. His artwork has been selected by charitable organizations (including the Rick Warren organization in March, 2007) to raise more than $2 million.

His artwork for Good Life Gifts is a stunning visual representation of the spiritual gemstones of Faith, Hope and Love. The gem in the upper left corner represents faith through its partial revelation. It reminds us that Faith - the assurance of things hoped for - is God's gift to us. Hope, the gem in the lower left corner, is our confidence in Jesus Christ, "Christ in you, the hope of glory." (Col 1:27). The predominance of the foreground gem conveys, "...the greatest of these is love." (I Cor 13:13).

Irwin's signature paper mosaic style utilizes many layers of torn paper accented with acrylic paints for a rich, colorful, mosaic-like appearance. American Artist Magazine (June, 2003), describes Irwin as 'a kind of artistic archeologist,' and his technique as one that 'conveys an impression that we are rediscovering history.' Some of Russell's clients include the Israeli Air Force, The Dallas Cowboys, the NFL, Pfizer, Citigroup and Ronald McDonald House Charities and The St. Louis Cardinals.
