A collection of whimsical birds accompanied by hilarious and imaginative descriptions of the bird s unique personalities from the over-the-top mind of the famed artist.
Inspired by a fan-favorite series of posts on Ashley Longshore s popular Instagram account, the artist s own colorful (and sometimes inappropriate!) bird descriptions and maximalist paintings give each bird a hysterical personality and backstory. Take Muffy, for example. What kind of bird does she look like? Muffy lives in a nest above her neighborhood s private tennis club. She studied abroad in London while in college and now calls her powder room the loo and refers to the movies as the cinema and she also calls her tennis shoes trainers ...she has a mild lisp that gets much worse after her third glass of rose...her stages of drunkenness are always the same: first she thinks she can sing, then she thinks she can dance and then she thinks she is invisible...during the stage of invisibility Muffy really lets it all out. Or Penelope (pronounced Penny-Lope ), a rotund, green and yellow fellow who ain t on Ozempic and has no interest in being traditionally thin...she lives in a nest made of M&M wrappers and Chanel tissue paper directly above the outdoor restaurant of a luxury vacation resort. She has an insatiable appetite for carb acquisition and an aerodynamic body built for snack zoomies. She is famous in bird hotel circles for her dramatic carb plunge, the FLUFF SWOOP . She snatches pastries from tourists with enviable precision. Some of the other birds get peanut butter and JEALOUS! Longshore combines her brilliant humor and knack for storytelling with her dynamic pop art style and is sure to have readers rolling from the very first page.
