I am really excited on my NetFlix Queve I have two movies that I couldn't pass up. "The Cool School" and "How to Draw a Bunny." Has anyone seen these? Do you know of any other art inspired Documentaries, worth mentioning?

My Name is Alan and I Paint Pictures is a great documentary about a man with schizophrenia who uses art to cope with his disorder.

In the Realms of the Unreal is also an incredible documentary about an outsider recluse janitor artist.

A great documentary on Netflix that I enjoyed watching was Exit Through the Gift Shop. It is filmed by a graffiti artist that tells a story abut a French Immigrant in Los Angeles that has an obsession with street art. Very interesting movie and hope you check it out!

Exit Through the Gift Shop is really good and it's about two famous street artists: Mr. Brainwash and Banksy.
