Upstairs/ Downstairs Show

A Matthew Porter double header at Bluebottle Art Gallery & Store



Upstairs I am presenting the original art from my new book, "Flowers."
This time it's all about learning our colors.

"Following ABC and Count the Birdies, Flowers is Matthew's third board book. The book, featuring gorgeous flowers in Porter's signature style of funky acrylic and ink paintings on wood, teaches little ones their colors. Unique, vintage, and timeless, the bright colors are sure to make it a favorite of babies and toddlers (and their parents, too)." - Simply Read Books. "Flowers" will be published in the autumn.

Downstairs I will present, "Rock 'n' Roll Suicide" (Part Two)
A seriously rockin' collection of Monkey World portraits. This show features a star studded line up of musical royalty from the past 50 years. Everyone from Adam Ant and Elvis to Slash and Jimmy Page.

Sad News

I just heard very sad news that Michael Jackson passed away today from cardiac arrest. As I mentioned before in my blog he was the very first concert I went to see as a kid and I loved his music. Cheers Michael!
