I collect folk art. When you're at a county fair and walk past a booth where someone's selling paintings that look like a 4 year old painted them on a block of wood and you ask yourself "Who the fuck BUYS those things??!!".. The answer would be: Me ;)
I live in a log cabin - a Picasso wouldn't exactly fit the decor. Brightly colored flowers, fish and roosters do. I actually even have some pieces that are worth a couple of thousand thanks to the artist being a bit famous and then dying.
But mostly I buy them because I like the purty colors
