" -- Kelli Bender People "I find inspiration everywhere, but nothing sparks more ideas than travel. 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 http://www.fox5ny.com/good-day/239162444-video Good Day Fox, March 2, 2017 http://nym.ag/2mwwyoy New York Magazine, February 20, 2017 "Working out of his massive 35,000 square-foot Brooklyn studio... Slonem pays homage to winged creatures of all shades, shapes and sizes. 'I've created an indoor jungle of sorts," he says of his atelier-turned-aviary."http://bit.ly/2mXqp2a -- Zachary Wilson Manhattan Magazine, March 2017 "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)."http://bit.ly/2mwyiOB -- Emily Lewis Mrs. Mommy Booknerd Book Reviews, March 4, 2017
