I would say it is outsider art but not bad.I'm not a serious collector by any means, but I do have a small collection of original bad art. I got most of my pieces years ago before I ever knew there was a museum dedicated to bad art:
Museum of Bad Art - Wikipedia
Here's one of my collection
Unknown title, unknown artist, but the theme is pretty clear.

I'm pretty sure it closed down as well. I was familiar with it at one time.I would say it is outsider art but not bad.
I am conflicted about calling anybody's art "bad". "Outsider" is a much better term. For me, though, I know I've created many bad photographs, and as a musician, played a lot of bad music. I like how the MOBA responds to the criticism of calling art "bad"
From wiki:
"The museum has been criticized for being anti-art, but the founders deny this, responding that its collection is a tribute to the sincerity of the artists who persevered with their art despite something going horribly wrong in the process. According to co-founder Marie Jackson, "We are here to celebrate an artist's right to fail, gloriously."
