Vintage Art

is it cheesy that im in to vintage and abstract art?

i have been an artistic unique person my whole life. i have always been into things other people consider weird. like collecting animal skulls (great for anatomy) old jewellry, things from the garbage. recently ive been getting into 60′s vintage art deco type stuff. i have collected quite a few odd pieces and im proud of them all and love each one and the story behind it. nothing i own coordinates at all and i like it that way. is it cheesy to be into this type of collecting/art?

I’m into the same stuff. Whenever the whim catches me I’ll do a found art composition. And I recycle and reuse all kinds of things in creative ways.

It’s tough when others don’t share your tastes. Right now I have a 1930′s radio cabinet. Big wonderful piece furniture and I can’t use it right now and no one else wants it. I have to free up some space because I can clutter a house quickly.

There’s something special when you can find beauty and wonder in things and places others just overlook. I think it’s only cheesy when it’s so bizarre that no one else is with you and you become a minority of one or your art gets in the way of your life -like the one man who collected so much stuff he structurally damaged his home and made it unlivable.

So enjoy yourself.
