1. Folk Art
Folk art describes a wide range of objects that reflect the craft traditions and traditional social values of various social groups. These art works from 'common folk' are generally produced by people who have little or no academic artistic training.
Folk Artists, or artists termed as “Folk Artists” normally have been working in a particular medium for tens of years and have gained design and compositional skills through natural ability and practice. Their work can seem somewhat childlike, but is rich in color, design and composition and is appreciated for these strengths along with it’s “naïve “ quality.
