The Self Taught Artist
Hillery Sproatt
A few artworks from some of my favorite self-taught artists: Kiyoshi Yamashita, Suma Maruki, Bruno Del Favero and James Castle. I find their work endlessly inspiring, and the stories of their lives, at times very sad are also wonderfully moving. The world seems fresh through their eyes; everything colored with honesty. Like the magic in their hearts is made real by their hands.
