PRIMITIVE ART, RURAL SOUTHERN AMERICAN FOLK ART, Caribbean Art,

The premier Naive Painter was HENRI ROUSSEAU
He was called "Le Douanier" as he was a customs agent
by profession and painted on weekends.

There are untutored, rural people all over America who can paint that well. There are
galleries everywhere that handle them. The favored subject, simple little cute homes,
and People in rural landscapes

PROSPEROUS UTOPIAN FARM ART

 

LAST, HAITIAN PRIMITIVE ART. This is the most beautiful of all and in this case, as HAITI needs money, I suggest getting the real thing from tent cities and sending profits back to Port Au Prince. See: HAITIAN ART PAGE  for more on that idea.
To see more examples, perhaps to print out, show to your students, to gallery owners, to investors in a charity 'art development business' that you want to do,  google on IMAGE page, for search terms "folk art" + American primitive + outsider art, + rural landscapes + self taught,  and 'Haitian art.' You will dig up enough graphics and information to get your family members started on painting PRIMITIVE ART, or buying it abroad and wholesaling it. After a few weeks of your teens elbow deep in paint, you just take digital photos of the art, create a website and start selling it. All my websites were made without a stitch of knowledge of how to do it. My "WEB SITE MAKING FOR DUMMIES" PAGE will show you what to download, like FTP free software. That's about it, actually. OH, a browser called NETSCAPE vers 4.5 or 4.7 one of those two as it has NETSCAPE COMPOSER in it the software I use to teach GUERILLA CAPITALISM at  all my webpages.

IF YOU MAKE AN ACTUAL BRICK AND MORTAR GALLERY, YOU CAN ALSO RENT IT OUT FOR WEDDINGS,  PARTIES  and SINGLES introductions parties AS DID THIS GALLERY:http://www.galleryc.net/rental.html
