Folk art encompasses art produced from an indigenous culture or by peasants or other laboring tradespeople. In contrast to fine art, folk art is primarily utilitarian and decorative rather than purely aesthetic. Folk Art is characterized by a naive style, in which traditional rules of proportion and perspective are not employed. Closely related terms are Outsider art, Self-Taught Art and Naïve art. The most famous face of Folk Art are Eugene Von Bruenchenhein, Jon Serl, Sallie Hathaway.
I really like the colorful patterns and the way the women are drawn, I think that using the patterns in the background for a game level would look really good and would be really unique.

Folk art is a wide-ranging term which often includes objects made by untrained artists, or made by people trained as sign-painters who were able to use their painting skills to make their own artworks. Terms such as ‘people’s art’ or ‘popular art’ are also widely used.

I really like the patterns Joby Carter has done, and the weird goofiness the statues have.
