What is Canal Art?
Canal Art, often referred to as "Roses and Castles," is a vibrant and distinctive folk art form that originated in the 19th century among the narrowboat communities of the English canals. This style is characterized by its bright colors, floral patterns, and charming scenes of castles and rural landscapes. It was originally used to decorate narrowboats, adding a personal touch and a splash of colour to everyday items.
