If you were told you're not artistic, but would LOVE to be able to paint… you’re in the right place.
Folk Art is a bit like learning to paint the way you learned to write.
You start with a brushstroke (a letter), learn to turn it into a flower (a word), and then bring the flowers together into a design (a sentence).
You build it step by step - one brushstroke at a time - adding clever little techniques, like blending two colours on the brush, until you can create designs that feel surprisingly achievable.
No talent needed. No experience required. No overwhelm.
Folk Art has been around for hundreds of years and was once known as “the art of the untrained artist.” Farmers, boat people, and ordinary families used it to decorate their homes with simple, joyful designs. In this introduction to Folk Art painting, you’ll begin with the comma stroke — the foundation of the style. You’ll discover brush tipping, a beautiful technique that blends two colours into soft, flowing strokes. By the end, you’ll bring these simple skills together to create lovely designs and apply them to a project of your own.
