Jinshan Peasant Painting is the Chinese folk art of southeastern Yangtze River area of Shanghai. The paintings are done by peasants, integrating the folk arts of printing and dyeing, embroidery, paper cutting, wood carving, and cook stove painting, and depict the peasant's colorful customs and daily life. This folk art was born in 1972, under the guidance of a professional painter Wu Tongzhang. A group of women who were good at embroidery and weaving used the paper as the cloth, the painting brush as the needle and created this rustic art. This folk art has been popular since late 1970s. Jinshan Peasant Painting made its international debut in the Expo 1980 in Brussels, Belgium.
