Rustic art is an art category that has become increasingly popular in recent years. These works are often collected by art enthusiasts because of their cultural and historical relevance in the art world. However, recently
rustic art has reemerged as a popular design choice among households and businesses.
This trend is often attributed to
rustic art often featuring
domestic and whimsical prints.
Many works of
rustic art are also
folk illustrations. Despite being within separate categories, these
whimsical prints bear many similarities and are often used as complementary decorative choices.
Folk illustrations like 'House with Flag' by Warren Kimble and 'Her Outhouse' by Kim Lewis are seen as characteristic of the works that cross the divide between these two categories and are seen as
rustic folk art while still being a part of the individual categories.
