Hunt Slonem

From internationally acclaimed artist Hunt Slonem comes Blossoms, the fourth installment in his fine art book series depicting the natural world. Following the success of Bunnies, Birds, and Butterflies, this new collection showcases Slonem's signature Neo-Expressionist style in a bright bouquet of colors and textures. Readers will recognize some of their favorite botanical varieties, from tulips and irises to waterlilies and sunflowers, each bloom composed of bold, fauvist strokes in a stunningly vivid palette. Utilising watercolor, oil, and acrylic paints, Slonem captures the beauty and uniqueness of Kingdom Plantae, and as such, this luxurious book - an art object in of itself - is yet another powerful testament to Slonem's imagination and reverence for nature. Lush, vibrant, meditative, joyful--the flower paintings of celebrated artist Hunt Slonem invite the viewer into a fantastical garden where color and texture bloom in thick impasto. From orchids to water lilies, sunflowers to tulips, Slonem's flowers transcend the tradition of still life, pressing urgently toward the viewer with the presence of portraiture and the energy of abstraction. Presented here for the first time in a single lavish volume, Blossoms reveals a new dimension of one of the art world's most beloved figures--and offers a visual feast for anyone drawn to beauty, nature, and the transformative power of paint.

Influenced by the exotic, lush landscapes of his childhood years in Hawaii, Hunt Slonem's richly colored, impressionistic bird paintings are celebrated worldwide. For the first time, Slonem's birds are collected into a single, luxurious volume. In Bitty Birds, the Louisiana-born artist pays homage to these remarkable creatures through hundreds of engaging artworks. 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). The world-renowned artist’s vibrantly patterned canvases are a celebration and a paean to birds, sure to entice returning fans and new viewers.

Following in the success of internationally acclaimed artist Hunt Slonem, Butterflies is the third book in his art/nature series, following Bunnies and Birds (also published by G Editions). This is an extraordinary presentation in terms of the oversized format, vast amount of artworks included, five-color printing throughout, a ribbon marker, edging on the three exterior sides of the book block, and an acetate jacket that can be removed so that consumers can have a “painting” without text on their coffee table. It is important to note that Butterflies follows two very successful publications that are mainstay collaborations between author and publisher. According to Tank Magazine: “Hunt Slonem is unabashedly in love with his subjects…and it shows.”

John Berendt writes, "Every morning, upon rising - even before he's had his first cup of coffee - Hunt Slonem performs his daily warm-ups . He approaches his worktable where a stack of small rectangular panels awaits. Some of the panels are made of wood, some of Masonite. In the course of the next half hour he will have populated all the panels with rabbits. These paintings are what he calls his warm-ups."
