Weird Art (for Weird People)

Weird art is where imagination runs wild, and rules politely excuse themselves. This community celebrates the bold, the bizarre, the tender, the delightfully unhinged.

If it’s strange, soulful, handmade, and human, it belongs here. All weird art is welcome… as long as it’s not AI-generated.

If the Bandon mentioned is the one in Oregon, it could also be olivine or epidote. Both are pretty common in the PNW.
