Introduction

As an artist, I love learning about other cultures and customs, and I am always looking for new ways to be inspired. To me, folk art is an untapped well of inspiration—it is art that represents a person’s history and traditions.

Folk Art Fusion will take you through the process of how I created 16 folk art paintings inspired by different countries and cultures around the world, including China, Japan, Mexico, Russia, Sweden, the United States, and others. Each subject in the book was carefully selected because it inspired me.
