Folk Art, Outsider Art, Visionary Art, Self-taught Art From the American South.

Folk Art Enthusiasts... Welcome! to the educational side of Visionary Art.com. On these pages, you will find tons of information about Folk and Outsider Art. This genre is sometimes referred to as Visionary Art or Self Taught Art. The artists listed here are mainly from the American South. We hope you find this sight useful. Hopefully, you will leave this site as enthusiastic about Folk Art as we are.

Outsider Artists have a unique perspective on the art that they create. Self-taught artists tend to make bold statements with their work and are not known for subtlety. Self-taught Artists like Bernice Sims do not beat around the bush, they show you exactly what they want you to see. Many Outsider Artists toil away in obscurity, gaining little recognition until after their death. Some artists like Mose Tolliver and Jimmie Lee Sudduth, are successful during their own lifetime.
