Some paintings by Ruslan Khais found their way into few corporate and privet collections. Collections of Ms. Jane Gordon in Wynnewood PA, Johnson & Johnson at Springfield PA, and Massachusetts State Hospital in Boston are some of them. " In general, my paintings are skirting the boundary line between representation and pure abstraction. Color, form, gesture, and physicality of paint - all of them are the subjects of main interest and great importance. Almost all paintings have been inspired by the landscape. Behind every abstract composition is a particular place in a particular time and in a specific atmospheric condition."
