David Shrigley


Gotta love that Scottish humor. His work is best when viewed in bulk. His photographs are hilarious, his drawings are hilarious, and his animations are also, hilarious. In fact, you should just go out and buy his book, it's really the only way. Because you keep reading and as you see more and more it starts to blow your tiny mind at how very many ideas and weirdnesses he has.
I am aware that books are not free, so, if you must, here's his website:

(I placed this entry under bad art because there's not category for good art...but I think it's good art, so please ignore the bad art categorization of this post...actually, this art is kind of good because it's so bad, you know, those illustrations and handwriting that are remeniscent of a 3rd grader at best...it adds to the humor...and some people might be of the opinion that humorous art isn't really art, it's more of a joke, in which case, they would call this bad art...in fact, I might venture to say that whether art is good or bad is pretty subjective, and depending on the veiwer, this may very well be a big load of bad art. So I apologize, profusely, for presuming that you will find this art, "good". (and what does good really mean, when you come down to it?)
