Sinopsis

The long-awaited book from outsider punk artist Tim Kerr. Self Taught is a collection of toy camera photos of Visionary Environments that Tim and his wife have been to in the last 10 years. There are also portraits that Tim has painted of their creators. The work is an expression of the spirit of DIY and creating for creation's sake. Kerr has always rejected the impulse to define art or music by categorizing it into a specific genre and throughout his music and visual art career, has preferred to color outside the lines rather than adhere to any one definition of "art" or, for that matter, punk. Tim Kerr is a musician and artist known for his lifelong contributions to the DIY and punk scenes, as a member of the Texas Music Hall of Fame, hailing from Austin, and for having played in The Big Boys, Poison 13, Monkeywrench, Bad Mutha Goose, Lord High Fixers, etc... Kerr is a visual artist and photographer, and currently releases music with his, and his friend Jerry Haggins, project Up Around The Sun.
