Welcome to Art of the Bored.

The vast majority of us have experienced the phenomenon that is called "boredom." It occurs either when we find ourselves with no activity to occupy our minds or bodies, or when we are forced to do tasks that erode the minds we seek to develop. It is the latter of these cases that generated the art you will see in this gallery.

In the spaces between mundane computer tasks and monotonous lectures, Art of the Bored came into existance. Being left with nothing more than Windows Paint to occupy our disturbingly jelly-like minds, we drew. We were driven to draw. It was either draw, or reducing the establishment to a firey pit of hell (as opposed to the non-firey pit if hell it already was). We chose to draw.

Okay, so it was the fact that we didn't have the insurance to cover fire and water damage that really determined our choice. But we made that choice.

And now before you lies the crushed fruits of our labours. Do you dare to delve into the minds of the pathologically bored?
