GelioGraphic

Geliographic is not a single artist but rather a group of illustrators living in Moscow, Russia. Their work is largely commission based, but they also have a collection of private artwork.  Using classical techniques they have created some of the most beautiful and interesting artwork I have ever seen. My absolute favorite are the still life paintings. Using old master style renaissance techniques, the artists created still life's with food but also weapons. Each one seems to represent an individual country as represented by is dishes. The work is strikingly original, and the rendering and color work is just to die for. The color palette is neither overly bright nor overly muted, and the dewy idealistic fruits are obviously a product of masterful glazing by oil virtuoso's. One of the most impressive and interesting  things about it, is that all the paintings were painted by different painters, but because they are all using the exact same painting methodology, the paintings look like they are all done by the same artists. Ooh if only I spoke Russian, perhaps I can find a translator, I would love to tell you  exactly how it was done!!!
