Folk Art Fusion: Americana A fun, accessible take on creating beloved scenes from the heartland. Read more Perspective & the Nave Style Drawing in perspective means representing objects in a three-dimensional space to give the illusion of depth and distance. In American folk art, these traditional rules are usually ignored. This is known as 'nave style'. Artists sometimes use nave style as a nod to folk artists who did not have a traditional art background. It has become a recognizable element in American folk art.

American folk art, like its other folk art relatives, relies on experiences, nostalgia, and heritage rather than formal training.

To look at old American folk artists work is to look through a telescope into another world. Many American folk-art pieces remain unnamed because their creators were everyday people, not widely known, and often completely unrecognized for their artistic talent. American folk artists were skilled, working-class people who entertained their trade by day and their creative talent by night.
