Lowbrow Art is a very popular and rapidly growing genre of art. It's diversity is growing as fast as it's popularity. Not sure what Lowbrow Art is? Keep reading for a summary from Wikipedia. It's a basic summary and it's brief and general. Consider exploring the world of Lowbrow Art for yourself. It will be time well spent.

"Lowbrow, or lowbrow art, describes an underground visual art movement that arose in the Los Angeles, California, area in the late 1970s. It is a populist art movement with its cultural roots in underground comix, punk music, and hot-rod cultures of the street. It is also often known by the name pop surrealism."


Art: Baby Robey  by Artist Vicky Knowles
OK I admit it, I love babies and I love robots, so of course I'm going to paint baby robots!

Anyway, this is a scene from the popular series "Robot Trouble," starring Baby Robey. In this classic episode, Baby Robey interferes with his parents' Moon chores and (predictably) all manner of hijinks ensue.

That rascal!
