It is similar to One Stroke and Tole painting. I love the old works the best!

Looks somewhat similar to one stroke decorative painting that so many artists use today. These older versions though are so much more vibrant. Thanks for doing your homework on this subject. Hope you find many more of these treasures in the new year.Debbie Nolanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11168646638438558551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4059731033561256727.post-19174496832718015912013-01-05T13:41:30.256-06:002013-01-05T13:41:30.256-06:00I love the colors and the designs!

There were definitely advantages to be had in the days before TV etc - people could express themselves in crafts that would last! Its also very interesting to see the connection back to Scandinavia in your part of the world. Hope the New Year has got off to a good start! sharonssunlitmemorieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00817837936506262964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4059731033561256727.post-68189488124395107522013-01-05T03:17:50.741-06:002013-01-05T03:17:50.741-06:00they are all so beautiful... they are all so beautiful...

I mean look at the first plate, the chicken (below the dancers feet),is really goofy looking, but hey it's folk art!CraveCutehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17266646948003488534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4059731033561256727.post-78368769399330532013-01-04T14:47:11.808-06:002013-01-04T14:47:11.808-06:00These are all lovely examples, Diane.
