There's a kind of art that has come to be known by many names--outsider, folk, self-taught, visionary, primitive and more.
This is art created by people who did not set out to be artists but whose work, often in later life, was discovered to be
as powerful as those who earlier in their lives had made art their career. The recognition and value of this art has been
slow in coming, but "outsider" art has become firmly fixed in public consciousness and, as with mainstream artists,
there is now an established market for this work.
