With Diana Beltran Herrera’s paper bird sculptures only two weeks behind us, birds seem to be the theme of the month. But I really really could not resist sharing these gorgeous bird-portraits by Matt Adrian when I visited his shop today. And if bird paintings aren’t your thing, you’ll love them anyway for their hillarous titles, like I will put you down as a soft maybe and Had I but hands to put about your throat.
Matt Adrian is a California-based painter whose wonderful works are shown and collected worldwide. For more works and background info you can visit his site. And if you’re looking for some pretty/funny things to buy, you can visit The Mincing Mockingbird on Etsy.
Oh they’re beautiful, I love the unusual poses too 🙂
Just checked out his paintings… Brilliant, brilliant titles!
I know! So good!! 🙂
One of the best parts of his work is the titles! You didn’t even include them! My absolute favorite is, “SHE DRUNKENLY APPROACHED ME IN A BAR, ASKED IF I WOULD “DO HER A RUDENESS”—AND YOUR MOTHER AND I HAVE BEEN TOGETHER EVER SINCE”
