Because of its inseparability with life, folk art determines that it is the unity of practicality and aesthetics, material and spirit, isomorphic with primitive art, with "multiple functions", at the intersection of art and production and life, and is an unconscious artistic process in the process of life. The nature of this primitive culture determines the arts and crafts characteristics of folk art.

First of all, the creation of folk art embodies the value orientation of seeking truth from facts. At the same time, it is also influenced by traditional folk cultural consciousness, national thinking mode, social environment, scientific and technological thinking and humanistic concept. On the premise of attaching importance to practical functions, we should respect the affinity between people and things, between people and society, and between people and nature.

That is to say, in the creative process, the contradictory relationship between nature, society, people and things involved reflects the rational sense of coordination and comprehensive grasp ability, and the spirit of pursuing harmony is the unity of science and technology and cultural consciousness.

The creation of folk art is restricted by the natural economic system combining agriculture with cottage industry. It uses local materials, measures materials for use, emphasizes experience and understanding, and has strong emotional color and stylized creative rules.

Combine artistic creation with life production, and put the traditional cultural spirit of cherishing natural resources and social wealth, respecting social ethics and values and "harmony between man and nature" into the process of creative technology and aesthetic creation.

The aesthetic concept of folk art is not completely utilitarian, but has certain spiritual utility, realistic social significance and profound connection with traditional social environment and cultural background.

Different from western classical realism, China's folk art modeling works follow the visual and perceptual basis and customary way of civil society, seemingly exaggerating and breaking the concept of time and space, but actually reappearing nature and integrating the active participation of mind and emotion, which is also the historical accumulation of national cultural traditions and aesthetic ideals.

Pursuing completeness, fullness and symmetry in composition; Pursuing perfection, symbol, randomness and imagery in modeling; The color contrast is bright and loud, the atmosphere is warm and dynamic, and at the same time, it also pays attention to the symbolic and subjective significance of color, which is more in line with visual feelings and emotional needs.

Folk art has created various aesthetic functions. First of all, it brings people aesthetic and intuitive enjoyment, at the same time, it pleases the body and mind and obtains spiritual satisfaction. It also has the function of emotional communication and strengthens the emotional voice between people in daily use. It also has cognitive function, spreads people's collective consciousness of nature, society, history and life in the form of perceptual images, and is an important way of folk culture education.

The spread of folk art skills is mainly centered on family workshops, with guilds, gangs and batch workshops as social communication modes, and the relationship between father and son, mother and daughter, and mentoring is an important communication channel. The form of communication has the characteristics of words and deeds, materialized communication (sample spectrum) and empathy (feeling).

Folk art inherits the original characteristics and simple art forms of primitive art, and is a parent art, which has derived other art forms of different social classes and social forms, such as palace art and literati art, and has also been influenced and promoted by them. In the process of development, they formed a corresponding relationship with each other, and constructed the overall style of China traditional art isomorphically.

As an important representative of national traditional art, folk art creation has immeasurable enlightenment and reference value for the development of modern art.
