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!

a new figure and pics of Archie
Archie is still struggling with Henry being gone, he sniffs the bed they shared in the back room, i wonder how long his scent will stay even after washing. He also is now sitting n the warm sandy area Henry used to warm his hips
you can see Henry's ashes in the little box in the background on top of my dad's ashes
this is Archie smiling well finishing a grin he moves so much its hard to get a good close up
here's my ode to moms

working on new work
slowly i'm working, the 11th will be a month since i lost Henry and i'm still struggling so much but able to do some work and feeling a little more excited about it again.
Letting go is so hard and i feel like this is going to take a long time. There are no words to describe what he meant to me what he still means to me. One day i wont cry.
A good thing is Archie is doing much better, he was so lost and sad.
anyway Thank you so much for having patience and understanding

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. "
