New concepts for my work emerge every time I go away. These new experiences influence my perspective on everything from color and technique to subject matter and scale." - Hunt Slonem--David Foxley "Architectural Digest "<br><br>"The avian "models" are often muses for Slonem who has released a new book of his work called BIRDS, which is filled with, you guessed it, stunning reproductions of his delightful winged paintings. "--Kelli Bender "People "<br><br>Dramatic and vivid, Slonem's avian subjects seem unconfined to a flat surface, brimming as they are with texture and movement. The compelling nature of these paintings lies in the tension between the birds' ability to soar and their often captive state (though Slonem's own birds are often spotted flying around his studio).--Emily Lewis "Mrs. Mommy Booknerd "<br><br>His painting is dependent on surrounding himself with the things he loves, both as creative inspiration and spiritual nourishment...His latest tome, Birds, celebrates his passion for and prolific paintings of his feathered subjects.--Stacey Bewkes "Quintessence "<br><br>Hunt Slonem's new book of mesmerizing avian paintings is a testimony to a life spent drawing and cherishing birds.--Meghan Bartels "Audubon "<br><br>Working out of his massive 35,000 square-foot Brooklyn studio...
