Outsider Art

It seems a shame to me that some really phenomenal, mind-boggling, creative artists of the modern days are virtually unheard of by everybody. I found a nice array of them, and on a whim, have decided to post links to it all here. Anybody who peruses this blog can now look at some examples of what can be done with art, if you think outside the box.

Aliens my foot! This is proof of what humans can do with agriculture when they put their minds to it.

Then there is of course the argument that people doing this kind of stuff just have too much time on their hands...

There are two more I'd like to post up, but they're YouTube items, and that site appears to be malfunctioning on my computer so it'll have to wait.

I hope these articles prove that art is not dead. Just time-consuming and bizarre.
