Please enjoy Russell Crowe's perfectly zen smartphone photography

The people's artist.

Celebrity Twitter is usually a parade of promotional tweets and ab shots, but not so for our dear, beloved Russell Crowe. Russ may be a Hollywood star, but you guys, he's got poetry in his heart.

Put simply, Crowe seems to be an avid phone photographer and it's amazing. He was the front man of late, lamented band, 30 Odd Foot of Grunts, don't forget. He's always been the people's artist and we should put him in the MOMA.

Here is a sampling of his oeuvre:

Blurry clouds at dusk.

Moon shots combined with lyrical public safety warnings.

Inception.

The photography seems to have been shared on Twitter in earnest from around June 2016 onwards.

Landscapes are Crowe's favourite style, but he's staying tech savvy with forays into the psychedelic stylings of the Prisma photo editing app -- an artist never stops learning.

Here's some more.

A poinciana interlude.

Call this Russ' Prisma period.

Prisma poetry. A little Edward Hopper, no?

A butt and a butt.

Where is he now? WHERE IS HE NOW??

Some landscape musings.

A lonely, patriotic still life.

That's all, folks. Consider this your annual Russ report.
