Guess what, baddies? It’s Mom & Pop Small Business Day and the perfect time to introduce you to our scream team. Olde Money was born from a combined passion for art and community. Our goal in bringing this vision to life is to support emerging artists, ensure there’s a place for their stories to be told and for their legacies to begin.
🧑🎨 Russ is an unconventional visionary, a self-taught oil painter, and designer by trade. Born and raised in NH, Russ sought out creative outlets from an early age, creating his own comics, and sketching true-to-life portraits of his cat, Mr. Jones. Throughout his school years Russ began impressing those around him by drawing murals on walls and chalkboards every chance he could.
Russ has continued his creative evolution and has worked professionally within many art fields including photography and graphic design for over 20 years. He is now an artist with a focus in oil painting - specializing in expressions of nature with a subversive intellect that adds a dark undertone to his work, which never fails

🧙♀️ Suze has been helping organizations realize their own unique brand identities and connect with their audiences with creative marketing strategies for over a decade. She’s our problem solver, joke maker, creative thinker and lifeline, all in one and that’s why she’s our VP of Communications & Community Engagement.
Suze is an avid pop culture enthusiast, bookworm and film lover with passion for all things horror (the good and the exceptionally bad), dynamic female leads, things that make her cry and unspoken stories. She possesses a strong connection to all things weird and wonderful with a particular fondness for dark and gothic, magical realism and pop art.
When she’s not change-making, Suze likes to hibernate at home with her husband Russ and her two cats Hugo, and Artemisia. You can usually find her with her nose in a book about haunted houses or fierce female warriors wielding swords and empathy. She likes to laugh loudly, cook on Sundays and connect with other weirdos like herself. Suze never feels more accomplished than when can recommend an exhibit, film or novel that brings someone joy. That’s the sweet spot.
