Crap art

Here I present some of the art I've viewed recently. This art is crap.

Disclaimer:

All the art showcased here is judged as crap because that's my uninformed opinion of it. I am not a professional art critic. I have no art qualifications. I'm just an amateur enthusiast.

No feelings were hurt in the making of this post. All the artists are long dead. These insults are awarded posthumously. If your feelings are hurt by the opinions expressed herein, sincerely, I laugh in your face. Enjoy!

Ready? Let's go...

adam eve anatomy lesson crap art.jpg

It's hard to know where to start with this one. Clearly, the artist has never seen anyone without clothes in real life. The anatomy is a little off. I especially enjoy the shoulders, hips and upper thighs.

bad horse rider crap art.jpg

Artists hadn't yet mastered proportions in the medieval times. I like how this horse is long with very short legs. The rider's face is quite special too. Bonus points to the artist for trying to convey a story even though you've used the same face repeatedly, like a copy/paste. I wonder what the rider is counting with his fingers.

crosseyed lion crap art.jpg

I think this is meant to be a lion. Please enjoy its anarchic eyes.

surprised outraged statue crap art.jpg

This statue looks surprised to be having his photo taken. It's not exactly crap but I enjoy how he's challenging the photographer here.

horse colour pink crap art.jpg

Another glorious example of anatomy and perspective. My favourite aspect of this picture is that the artist must've run out of horse-coloured paint. Clearly he had plenty of pink so just went with a pink horse. Well played, artist. Nobody will notice.

merlin see foot crap art.jpg

This one is featured because of the foot (far right-hand side). Medieval artists were notoriously bad at painting feet and (if you look at the guy on the left) hands.

perspective crap art.jpg

Anyone could be an artist back then. The artist has no idea how to render depth. Everything about this pic is impossible, ranging from the maid pouring water to a toddler Caesar being ripped out of a dead pregnant lady. Enjoy her toes.

unicorn crap art.jpg

WTF is this? It seems to have a unicorn horn and a hatred for blue fabric. Anyway, I enjoyed looking at it. Again, depth perception is very poor; notice how the tiles fail to recede with distance from the viewer.

tryna get taxi on nye crap art.jpg

This is included because it's one of the only images of Jesus and his mates trying to get a taxi on New Year's Eve. They've done a pretty good job of the feet for medievalists.

they punish but you like a spanky crap art.jpg

Torture fail. I think this is meant to be a punishment scenario but the martyr seems to be enjoying this a little too much.

madonna child crap art.jpg

The weren't very good at painting babies back in the day. Look at that neck. And he seems to have the face of a 40-year-old.

Plato_Seneca_Aristotle_medieval.jpg crap art.jpg

Did you just assume my gender? I don't know what's going on here. It seems as though the artist originally painted 3 women then changed his mind when he got to the faces. By the time he painted the guy's face on the right, he was completely out of ideas. Another medieval copy/paste.

If you'd like to showcase your crap art, feel free share it in the comments. I like looking at art, especially if it's crap. Sharing of good art is done at the artist's own risk. If you wanna discuss why this crap art isn't crap, that's also welcome. If you wanna use the #crapart tag, it'll be easier to find your crap art.
