International celebrity Portrait artists like Barbara
Kaczmarowska-Hamilton, with her ability to create an exceptional likeness, was handpicked to immortalise Pope John Paul II and members of the Royal Family. Portraits
by the Moscow Academy of Art graduate Rinat Kuramshin are reminiscent of the Great Russian 19th century realist art, and particularly that of Karl Bryullov - one of the greatest Russian maestros of the portrait genre. Distinguished artist Cristian Aviles has for many years studied the techniques of the old masters of the Flemish, Venetia and Spanish schools
of thought. The faces of his portraits capture the beauty and truth of the individual.

At the age of 28 he became the youngest artist to portray the Queen, after the Queen herself chose him, from a short-list of artists.
