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 would say it is outsider art but not bad.
 
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."

I'm pretty sure it closed down as well. I was familiar with it at one time.
 
I was kind of glad for this challenge because I needed some motivation to finish the color roll in my Nikon FM. I am not into color film all that much and always feel naked without a second shooter, I have my F2 but I want to get it serviced by Sover Wong because it is prestine but needs a lube and adjustment, probably next year before I send it to him.

Accomplished in two beautiful, lunch days to start the challenge. The color roll helped me clean up the color processing for the time being. I got to know my 35 f2 a little at a distant which was helpful. I also realized I am getting lazy because of digital. It really makes me think about doing away with it.

These are not great as I am not a landscape photog at the moment but I enjoy viewing them. So, in conclusion... the challenge motivated me, provided insight on my approach, and was fun because it motivated me to step into the frame. TPF
