Intuit Teen/ That Intuit Show

Hello there! In today's episode of "That Intuit Show", I'll be talking to you about some of the art pieces on display right now. This first one above is a picture of me talking politics with my buddy here, "Little Man, Big Plans". I really like this drawing not just because of the artwork (don't get me wrong I love it) but because of the artist as well. The artist, Ted Gordon, has been doodling since he was fourteen and has been employed as a mental health worker. His art is compulsive in that his mind gives his hand hold of the reins and lets it draw using little impulses that feel right. When I draw, I feel much the same way. Who knows, maybe I'll turn out to be an artist just like him.



Alright well I'm sad to say that this picture is too zoomed out to experience it fully. So I'll just explain it to you. Yay! This untitled drawing was made by Eugene Von Bruenchenhein. What I really like about this drawing is that outsider art is meant to be expressive of the artist right? (Yes!) So I just find it very interesting how this artist chose to draw something with a lot of specifics. I mean everything is perfect. No missed calculation, no mistakes, no nothing. I at least don't see a single error on this piece. Not that errors are bad but just the fact that he chose to make it so that there wasn't any is really cool. Well that and I also tend to really like drawings made with meticulousness detail.


Man these are all hard to see. I apologize to all of you... Anyway, this drawing is called "Old White Woman, South Cheyenne" drawn by Anonymous (Intriguing isn't it?). I really just like the simplicity of this art piece. For it to be drawn on a piece of lined paper... I love how this drawing of a woman riding a horse through a volley of arrows (which you guys probably can't see) is a work of art.

There are many many more pieces I would love to show you but well this is it for now. Maybe some other time. Until next time, ta ta!

These are very engaging comments, and a good picture of the commentator.
