Andrey Gordeev — Khabarovsk, Russia

Everyone is at Gordeev’s mercy! Snarky mini narrative sometimes guest starring famous faces and politicians looking humorously vacant.

Propelled by daily life, current events and politics, this Russian illustrator produces characters range from Vladimir Putin to patriotic soldiers in deeply humorous and satirical circumstances. Gordei’s work is not dissimilar to political editorial illustrations found in newspapers and current event publications; poking fun at public figures. His technique with oil paint would rival any great contemporary artist but it is his audacity and his sharp as a nails wittiness that captures the attention of the public eye.
