Naive art

Okay kiddo, imagine you’re at school and you have an art project to do. You’ve never really painted before, but you decide to have a go anyway. You don’t really follow any rules or techniques, you just paint what you think looks good. That’s kind of what naive art is!

Naive art is a type of art that is created by people who haven’t necessarily had any formal training in art. They might not even know any of the fancy words that people who take art classes use, but that’s okay! Naive artists just create what they feel like creating.

One of the cool things about naive art is that it often has a childlike quality to it. That’s because it’s made by people who aren’t afraid to use bright colors and bold lines. They don’t care about making things look realistic, they just want to make something that makes them happy.

Another thing is that naive art often has a really personal feel to it. Since the artists aren’t trying to impress anyone or make their art fit into a certain style, they can just go wild and create something that tells a story that’s important to them.

For example, imagine you made a painting of your family. You might make your mom really big because she’s the boss of the family, or you might make your little brother really small because he’s always following you around. That’s the kind of personal touch that naive art has.

So, naive art is a fun way to make art without any rules or restrictions. Anyone can do it and it can be a really meaningful way to express yourself!
