I like Joel Henriques handicrafts and blog, made by joel. Joel featuring crafts and stuff that he do with
his kids. Paper animals, wood & wire toys, handmade books and more.



Adolf Wölfli made intresting drawings, but had a shady biography.

I love the finger puppets!!!
Have you been to the Art Brut foundation in Switzerland, Lausanne? There are alot of Wölfi's creations there. Worth the visit if you are ever in that area of the world.
