Prolonging Revenge Through Reincarnation: The Paintings of The Mincing Mockingbird Volume III
by Matt Adrian (aka The Mincing Mockingbird)
From The Mincing Mockingbird:
Birds. They’re ubiquitous. Colorful. Expressive. As human beings, we tend to project our own characteristics upon these creatures. Artist Matt Adrian has taken this anthropomorphic tendency and exaggerated and expanded it, adorning his lush, minimalist avian portraits with non sequitur titles laced with humor, melancholy and a wicked touch of the absurd. This 160 page collection of Adrian’s artwork features vivid color reproductions of over one hundred bird paintings completed between 2013 and 2015, with subjects ranging from the smallest hummingbirds to the mighty dinosaur-like cassowary. In this beautiful book you will find that Adrian’s refreshingly original combination of art and language is haunting, gorgeous, literate, weird and very, very funny.
If you like The Mincing Mockingbird’s Guide to Troubled Birds (that is, if you like fantastic bird portraits coupled with a depraved sense of humor), you’ll love this collection.
