“Russell is a fantastic talent, designer, artist and architect. I have known him for over 20 years and his ability has continued to grow and mature. Russell has the rare talent to also be able to ignite the spark in students to reach their optimum potential. The work the students were producing bordered on professional quality. Russell sets high standards for his students and I have seen few professors obtain the results that Russell commands. I give Russell my highest recommendation without reservation both as a professional and a professor.”

“Russell is an extremely gifted graphic artist I met while he taught in Texas A&M's College of Architecture. At a time when hand drawing is giving way to computer imagery, it is refreshing to find someone so talented teaching design students important skills.”

“I'm not sure how Reid does what he does, but it is marvelous. There must be some strange combination of creative juices and analytical gearing up in his brain that make it possible for him to translate complex architectural layouts into beautiful renderings. His work was the foundation for one of our most popular magazine articles ever. First class, and easy to work with.”
