I went to his blog and posted a comment on the turtle with the rubix cube.
When I was younger I almost bought an Andy Warhol painting. It is because I really do enjoy art. And although I was a Mathematics major in college most of my free electives were art classes. I took a pottery class, a basic design class, a print making class and even a floral design class. I just enjoy art. So that may be why I’m so drawn to some of the very talented artists out there. I found Adam of falldowntree. His artwork is simply delightful. There really isn’t any other word for it. I instantly fell in love with the characters of his prints. As Adam says in his profile, he likes to draw, and I like to look at his work. There is a retro quality to his work, but I am also reminded of Disney and Pixar animated movies when I view his shop. One of my favorite series he has is the My New Robot series. He has at least 4 prints in this series but it will probably continue to grow. He also has a To The Moon series, a Train, Train Go Away series and a Cook A Doodle Doo series based on a story by the same name.
Adam sent me the Bird Band 10 x 10 print on White Linen Textured card stock with a matte finish. Immediately it reminded me of the Country Bear Jamboree in Disney World. It features 6 birds singing and playing instruments in their woods. There is a simple, almost country charm to it, without looking out of place in a more modern home. I can’t wait to frame it and hang it in one of the boy’s rooms.
BUY IT!
Go visit Falldowntree and buy one of his prints for yourself or your child.

They are so cute. I would love Puddle Me. My son with autism has some duck paintings in his room, and this would go really nicely! I like the artists innocent looking paintings! I also follow Matthew's blog publically–have been for awhile! I enjoy your posts. Keep it up. I'll e-mail you with my e-mail address. -Lisa
Oh, I had a blonde moment. I guess I'm supposed to do a individual comment for the fact that I follow your blog publically. Here it is! -Lisa
Not sure how to leave my e address, but if you don't mind it is thekellys4@netzero.com, but if you don't mind not posting my address on your blog, but just having it in case my name gets picked randomly for the drawing of the print. Thanks! I love your blog!
I'd love the strawberry cloud print!!

My son would love the Dino Sore – Print
My favorite is the bird band! I wish that he had the dinosaurs making nicer faces in the trio print!
ack.. bump my "I wish he had the dinosaurs making nicer faces (in the trio print) comment to here. lol.. I combined them. 😉
The dino set (with the three dinos on separate prints) are super cute. He should combine those in a trio together as one print.
I follow you!

Very cool style to this artwork. I like the Penelope print because it looks just like my own cat. Thank you for the fun give-away.
This was a very hard choice. My girls love dinosaurs so it was in between the Dinosaur Set and the Birds. I choose the Birds.
I would choose Penelope. Wow!! his prints are super cute.
