Paintings by Brandon Bird

[TEACAKE'S PLEATHER DOME]

I got it today! It is on VERY nice art print paper, heavy and matte. It is numbered 25/50 and signed. Here it is freshly opened. Next step will be getting it framed. It was packed well, in that cardboard you see and then in a strong cardboard envelope.

Of course it looks much clearer IRL, just a phone camera here.

Oh, yeah, Brandon Bird's great. He was featured on Something Awful once (positively). Rich Kyanka commissioned the Last Supper with Twelve James Woodses and Robocop, iirc.

I think that The Death of Jennifer Sisko is a tad flashy (albeit true to the intended style), and The Lesson of the Geese seems rather weird.

However, I found Of Bajor to be so hauntingly beautiful in its whimsical and minimalistic way (echoes of Eric Chase Anderson) that I just had to order the set of five 13'' prints. So looking forward to having it on my living room wall!

The top one in this thread makes me laugh- I assume they're ment to be a little tongue in cheek? Or at least I hope so. Of Bajor is decent (though it doesn't actually remind me of Bajor, which i recall been green and leafy?)

Okay, I'm a bit thick... Anybody care to explain 'Of Bajor' to me?

Unleash your inner artiste Lateralus!

Is that the side of me that keeps drawing space battles on napkins? Because it's never actually helped me with anything.

 

[reversepolarity]

Haha, yeah that's the one. Maybe you should frame your doodles (sounds painful!) and get them up for sale?

It's Sisko and Yates and unnamed child farming on their Bajor estate, presumably in the aftermath of the war. Never actually happened, because Sisko went to Space Heaven, but it was their plan.

Yeah, I understand that piece. It's just that I don't get how all of the other pieces fit in and what the paths represent.
