When we are kids, even random scribbles are hyped up by our parents. Obviously, it’s cute then, but as we grow up, we are expected to get better. Well, some are naturally gifted artists and create something brilliant that truly deserves a place on the wall.
But a few don’t realize how terrible they are. Maybe nobody really had the guts to tell them the truth. Or maybe they are just too delusional to see it. Either way, their artistic failures can be so hilarious they turn into comedy gold for us.
The r/delusionalartists Reddit community collects ridiculous art pieces with wildly overconfident prices. Some are so outrageous, you wouldn’t know whether to laugh or question the artist’s sanity. Just scroll down to check them out!

#84 For 40 Dollars You Can Put This Wet Hairball On Your Face!

Handmade furry waterproof bat mask listed online by confident artists.
I know a kid probably made this but realistically who is going to spend 40 dollars on something that looks like it was pulled out of the shower drain.. I like that they're expressing their creativity but I feel like they're going to get discouraged because no one is going to buy it. I just wish they could have waited till they got a bit better before letting themself get disappointed.
