Globally renowned artist, Hunt Slonem is carving out a distinctive neo-expressionist style through the repeated imagery of nature. Keeping the company of 60 pet birds, Slonem takes inspiration from his surroundings. Hunt Slonem's art is an embracement of the beauty of nature, depciting subjects such as butterflies and tropical birds. Through a unique style, in which Slonem pushes simple forms against flat spaces of color, allows for his subjects to contrast against the picture plane. The combination of expressive and textural brushstrokes is reminscent of the German Expressionism movement with an added contemporary splash.

With works showcased in the permanent collections of 250 museums worldwide, including the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, Slonem is continuing to stamp a permanent mark in contemporary art.
