World Famous Sam G Land

In the backroads of Clarkesville, Georgia, lies a folk art mecca of artist Sam Granger.  He made his front and backyards a folk art paradise showcasing his fun sculptures and found objects all throughout his land.  He even made a fun nature walk where you can walk and see his fun creations.  His house is a side road next to a gas station, where it leads you to this magical folk art paradise.  See the pics below:

Pasaquan, a 7 acre compound in Bueno Vista Ga. Eddie Owens Martin was a gay prostitute selling weed out of his compound. He created this artistic site almost in secrecy. As anyone who came to visit him were not allowed in his backyard. He made up a one of a kind religion called Pasaquan. He told people he could talk to animals and would do tribal dances in his backyard. Eddie has been deceased for quite some time, but his compound has been restored through the Kohler Foundation. Dee and I visited Pasafest, a once a year art fest out in the middle of nowhere. The place is an absolute wonder of creative art. With authentic folk artists selling there wears. There was also a stage of live performers and tasty food trucks. This is yet another place Deidra and I would highly recommend fir your bucket list. ✌️ ✌️ 👌 #samgranger #pasaquan #kohlerfoundation #buenovistaga #pasafest #folkartpainting #bucketlist #bluefrogart (at Pasaquan) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqBgQM2gmo3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1oo7dci5au0si
