A guide for beginners of folk painting
Anyone can easily learn folk painting!

It's okay if you have no dexterity, no aesthetic sense, no knowledge of folk painting, or no prior experience with it.
This is because you can draw folk paintings right away by following the preparation, sketching, and coloring instructions in this book.
There are a total of 15 folk paintings illustrated in this book.
The main paintings include peonies, lotus flowers, small fruit paintings, fish paintings, insect paintings, bird paintings, letters, and books, which symbolize wealth, honor, integrity, good luck, and fortune. However, in addition, we introduce methods for drawing plants that we often see in our daily lives as folk paintings.


Although this book provides separate drawings, it proceeds step by step from the sketch so that you can draw the subject you want to draw yourself.
Another great thing about this book is that it shows color combinations at a glance.
Rather than asking, "How do I draw that?", it has detailed explanations for beginners that will make you think, "I can draw that too!" and it is friendly enough to point out how to mix and color the colors.
For those new to folk painting, there is no better book than this.


Folk painting is similar to modern people's hobbies in that people enjoy painting and drawing with pleasure, even if they are not experts or have no special skills or talents.
Even if it's not drawn well and a little awkward, it feels warm.
I hope that this book will allow you to let go of the burden of having to draw well and savor the feel of the brush brushing across the Korean paper, letting go of your weary mind.
