Traditional Prints and Posters

Traditional art has long been an inspiration to the viewer as well as other artists.

This community might be based on religion, region, ethnicity, occupation, or something else. Through the art they express the culture 's heritage. Artists in the traditional style use many of the old techniques and styles of their culture yet experiment within those boundaries to express their own creativity.

Folk art usually falls under the traditional art category portraying simple and rustic subjects and scenes. The subjects are usually typical and familiar to the culture such as Mary Ann June's bear series with Still Waiting, Nature's Calling and Bear Necessities. Traditional prints also include religious themes such as Home at Last by Danny Hahlbohm, Head of Christ by Reginald Marsh, and Dear God It Is Me Calling by Carla D'aguanno. Other traditional posters include Pedistal Sink by Paul Brent, the Tuscan Wine series by Gregory Gorham, and Master Bedroom, c.1965 by Andrew Wyeth.
