Folk art from the Deep South
The strength of these artists work is their lack of self-consciousness as to what their art is or should
be. It is their sheer impulse to create, and there in its raw beauty lies its power. Outsiders . with its romantic
overtone, has been the most popular term to describe these artists. They are self-taught , imaginative, and many of them have
been isolated from the contemporary art world. Even though eccentricity and isolation have in many cases nurtured their creativity,
often they have been misunderstood and shunned by their relatives, friends and peers.
