Nostalgic Folk Art was born in 2004. I came up with Nostalgic Folk Art name for my paper mache figures because I love the older things that remind me of my childhood and of innocent times. They are figures of folks both childish and impish and I love vintage folk art so putting nostalgic with folk art was/is a perfect and fitting name for my lil figures and business. I feel so blessed and thankful to God for being able to make these little pieces and hope they make you smile.


Thank you for taking the time to visit!







And when your done visiting here, I'd love for you to check out my work on my etsy shop, www.etsy.com/shop/NostalgicFolkArt











The Best to you always!

Sat morning at Images Art Festival

Images Art Festival in New Smynra Beach Fl. is a wonderful outting and especially today as the weather was just perfect and the sea air so crisp.
i didnt take pics of the artists there as most do not like their work photographed w/o their permission but Dan took(with her permission) Trish Thompson and me admiring some of her new work. Trish is a popular Florida artist and her work is valued and collected by many all over the country.


I met her formally through my friend, who was also set up there,


Um Tee its me


Here is a view of some of her incredible work, one day I'm gonna have one of those doors!


and what about this fence, she also does amazing fireplace screens


and of course the boxes she is known for


Lots of dogs there so that was really nice to see and all well behaved. No way i could of taken our Boston boys but i really missed them seeing all the cuties there here are some pics of that and the farmers market next to the art show.



what a good and patient boxer


these sweethearts in their sat morn jammies

sitting in the shade eating a philly cheesteak with extra cheese sauce, Dan is a good boy he had a grilled grouper sandwich and listening to German polka music. It was too early for a beer tho.






Florida living!

My First Written Review/Kinda like your first dollar, I treasure this dearly

"Carol Roll is a relative new-comer, creating folk art for four years, now. Her paper mache figures reflect significant talent. At first glance, her angels, people, mermaids, and animals may appear cute and dear. At closer look, they are sophisticated, with detailed, expressive faces, each unique. Roll's work is anything but mass produced. It's the real deal. "
