Hi fellow DA's. Does anyone know if this style of terribly ugly art has a name? I was so offended by this piece I actually fell in love with it at a second hand shop. Probably not worth anything but it just makes me grin looking at it.

Witco stuff was darn fun
and it was actually decent design, but it's kinda kitschy and not usually consider fine art.
My late friend had the 5 foot high kangaroo magazine rack, and it was a hoot.
