Kristine Martineau Gellerman

Kristine Martineau Gellerman is a contemporary realist painter.  Her work is informed by her observations of nature and the world around her.  She studied art and design in the Twin Cities and pursued a growing interest in classical realism while studying drawing at Atelier Lack in Minneapolis.  She continues to study painting and has recently been combining different media to create the richly layered and vibrant hues in her current works on paper and canvas.

Kristine has received numerous awards for her work which may be found in private and corporate collections internationally, and has been published in New American Paintings, a juried exhibition in print.

“Light and shadow informs and inspires my work as an artist; indeed, it characterizes all of life, and through the duality of light and darkness appears beauty and clarity, revealing an openhearted silence.”
