Very few people have ever thought of the Angry Birds characters in a sensuous way, but French illustrator Gob proves anything goes in the art world with his series 'Angry B*tches.' Transplanting the round bodies of the Angry Birds characters onto sultry silhouettes of female bodies, Gob has morphed sullen avians into seductive vixens.
Gob hilariously frames each 'Angry B*tches' creation, making it appear as though his marker-drawn renderings are already a part of an art exhibit. Viewers will no doubt laugh at these images, though whether it’s out of humor or sheer discomfort will be for you to decide.
The only character of the 'Angry B*tches' bunch not to rock high heels and skimpy clothes is the pig, who’s wearing a sleek suit. This may be because he’s a villain rather than one of the many birds players use.
