Contemporary Outsider Art Drawings are an electrifying category of original artwork that challenges traditional notions of art. These drawings are created by artists who are self-taught, untrained or work outside of the mainstream art scene. They often use unconventional materials, such as found objects, recycled materials, and even everyday items like ballpoint pens, pencils, and markers. The medium and support used in these Artworks are as diverse as the artists themselves, and may include paper, cardboard, wood, and canvas. What makes this type of artwork unique is the raw and unfiltered expression of the artist’s emotions, experiences, and perceptions. The result is a captivating and authentic representation of the artist’s inner world that invites the viewer to participate in a journey of self-discovery.

Origins and History
Contemporary Outsider Art Drawings have a long and fascinating history. The term "Outsider Art" was first coined in the 1940s to describe the work of self-taught artists who were outside the mainstream art world. These artists often had little formal training and worked in isolation, creating highly personal and idiosyncratic works. Outsider Art gained mainstream recognition in the 1970s, with the publication of Roger Cardinal’s seminal book "Outsider Art".
