Art by Psychotics.

A gallery of paintings done by schizophrenic (and suspected schizophrenics - like Hienonymus Bosch).

Be sure and look at the freaky psychedelic cat on the top left, when you click that one it shows you a progression of paintings that were done by the artist (whose typical subject matter was humorous depictions of cats) as his mania spiraled further and further out of control.

Another note of interest - I noticed that the second painting from the right - middle row - was utilized as cover art for the Van Halen album "Fair Warning" (my favorite Van Halen album, incidentally. Does this make me psychotic? Keep in mind that this was before Van Halen sucked).
