About Me

(THIS BLOG IS NOT AFFLIATED WITH NOR DOES IT REPRESENT VALUE VILLAGE) Welcome to the (Value) Village Art Gallery. I’m your host, Curator SadHoboClown, and I will be your guide throughout the tour. Here you will find, free of charge, some of the most fantastic and awe-inspiring paintings ever gazed upon by the eyes of mankind. Our intention here is not to make anyone feel bad for having possibly created what many would consider to be bad art: I myself am a would-be artist and I’ve done some truly terrible things with paint and canvas, for which my conscience still plagues me. However: I honestly believe that most of the paintings you will see here can be considered charming: in them you are able to see the stumbling, tottering baby-steps that various artists have taken in the process of learning how to do something they’ve perhaps never done before. The point is that most people can only get better at something if they start out not better at something, right? So even if I’m being a bit of a wise-ass at times, bear in mind that it’s all in fun. Bad Art is still Art! (DISCLAIMER: THIS SITE AND ALL ITS CONTENTS ARE FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY. DON'T HAVE A COW, MAN!!!)

Cartoony Kid and Moon (Acrylic on Canvas)

My hatred for the overuse of purple and blue on the part of amateur artists is occasionally close to being displaced by my hatred for the overuse of black (and sometimes gray.) I just don’t get it. This isn’t a bad painting but it is an ugly and pointless one. Why does it exist? What does it say? It represents what I hate about the 21st Century.

By the way: the entries for today have been sitting in my phone for almost a week. Thats how long it’s taken me to overcome my ennui and to work up the energy and/or desire to post these. It’s been a bad week for art.
