art by bob horner

this guy is named bob horner, his little cutouts are amazing, i like the ones that look like they are stacked. i don't really like to describe art, i am not a writer or critic, so you should check this stuff out at http://BobHornerArt.etsy.com. they are goofie, acidic and insanely quirky... he has a great vision, and i think i understand! check it out!



so i love looking thru etsy.com once a month or so, checking out all the great (and some questionably great) items that people have hand made all across the world. there is some awesome stuff out there. i used to own a small art gallery in chapel hill NC called Dr. Quang's Gallery of Miscellanea, it was a wonderful little place that had no money, but we threw these incredible art openings that would spill out on to the street. the artists i would show were all untrained artists, or artists who never had a show before, all with a slant towards the outsider art that i find most appealing. i miss throwing the shows but i don't miss running the business. i have always thought it would be great to have an online gallery - not to sell stuff but just to expose the artists i like. i think i will do that with microfantastic.com one day, for now i am going to use this weblog...
