New in the Colossal Shop: Architectural Expressions of Nature by Rafael Araujo

Fun and Random

Phoebis, Triple Helix

Diaethrea Sequence

Spiny Shell

Nautilus

Earlier this year we were thrilled to feature the work of Venezuelan artist Rafael Araujo who works with rulers and protractors to create fascinating drawings of shells, butterflies, and other natural objects supported by a fictional geometric framework. With a strong background in architectural drafting, he renders each piece without the the aid of a computer using pen and ink on canvas with acrylic paint.

After appearing here on Colossal and several other publications, Araujo was barraged with requests for prints, and we immediately began to discuss the possibility of bringing his work to the Colossal Shop. I’m extremely excited to announce that we have teamed up with iolabs to print several of his pieces for the first time, with additional works coming in the near future. Head over to the Colossal Shop to learn more.
