Birds do it

Here are my boundaries; no paintings of bird girls getting cornholed by human headed pigeon guys in the basket of a hot air balloon. Other than that, I’m pretty open.

This is stranger than the time I wore a Ronald Reagan mask and my husband wore a Sara Palin mask while having sex.

You know…if I could get this for free, I’d love to hang it up over the fireplace just when company’s coming over and have a hidden camera set up to record their reactions. Only if I could get it for free though.

Are they in a hot air balloon or getting lowered into a well? Either way, hot.

Maybe if it had some esoteric title like “circumscription” or “demarcation”, then I could see spending $95.00 on a painting…

My god those bricks are huge compared to the guy & bird’s head!

#8 The Mayor of Bethville :

When a bird with a man head and a man with a bird head love each other very, very much, they fly far, far away in a hot air balloon to a place where people are more accepting of love between birds with man heads and men with bird heads.

#10 nerdette27 :

maybe it’s an original interpretation of hot air balloon furries? or? um. Yeah unless it’s made out of cow dung or something… $95 seems kinda steep for something made out of cardboad and tempra paint.

is there an RSS feed for this blog? I don’t want to follow on Twitter and I’d like to be able to get the posts automatically?

Hilarious by the way.

Wait, why is everyone assuming the bird-headed human is a woman? I certainly don’t see any indications of secondary sexual characteristics indicating that’s the case. The first time I saw it I thought it was gay bird-people getting freaky in a hot air balloon. Possibly flying over a church/mosque/temple/school/playground.

The origins of Big Bird. I can only hope this is part of a series. Next up: Mr. Snuffleupagus and Oscar the Grouch.

I’m actually really curious to hear from the seller on the inspiration for this. Probably has either a very interesting or idiotic back story.

Also curious to find out what they awkwardly screwing in.

I have heard of the North American Man/Boy Love Association, but this must be a new one, geared toward bird watchers and the like. Maybe it is the North American Man/Bird Love Association. Or maybe this artist simply got shit on his head by a bird one too many times.

I could literally stare at this for hours and still come away with nothing better than it’s a dude with a bird head and a bird with a dude head fucking.

Maybe if instead of making useful, affordably priced, attractive and well made items I started huffing glue and painting crap while sitting in a dark room I could make more sales on Etsy. Ugh. It really seems that the more one utilizes the corners of despair from their nightmares and expired refrigerator ingredients as inspiration for their ‘art/craft’ the more successful they will be on Etsy. Someone give me a bird head!
