Please Enter the Bad Art Contest!!!!!

Jim Sant Amour is this month's judge for the monthly bad art contest. It will be extended as long as it takes for him to receive at least ONE entry--ideally TWO to have a fair competition. This month's theme is YARD ART. You do not need to be a member of MOBMA (museum of bad mail art) but we'd love to have you there!!!

This is some Yard Art of Elgin dubbed the "Poo Garden"

There was a huge controversy a few years back when someone put a "traditional lawn jockey" in their yard - looked very similar to this:

jockey lawn ornament

Now, is this BAD yard art or what?

I thought it said Bald Art Contest.

yuck!! those home decorators take it to a whole other level--if only someone in their lives had dared to say, "Seriously?"

Oh this is good to know. MOBMA non-rules aren't always easy to remember.

Of course, submissions are welcomed...otherwise I'd just be a member of the IUOBAJ (international union of bribe accepting judges)...

Jim--are email submissions are accepted too?

Jim, I have a nautical neighbor here on Cranberry Island who should be exposed on mobma.  I will need to get my infrared film ready as E.G. has some attack geese that I'm fairly afraid of. Will work on it in the next few days and send something soon.

No size restrictions. 

However, please keep in mind when sending bribes that I live in a small bungalow in St. Petersburg Florida with on street parking (so I'd coordinate with each other as to who is sending the car - I really wouldn't have sufficient parking for more than one1956 Baby Blue Cadillac El Dorado Convertibles)

Christ, I'm in! Any size restrictions?

Wow, DK. Now that you explain it, no that isn't the EM (from all the highly controlled publicity shots). I had meant to ask if the Sculpture Garden where you keep the alien spacecraft parts had been converted into the Pooh Garden. Thx for correcting this. And I'm glad to know the grounds of the EM ("Graceland of the Midwest") is still intact.
