Which sentence is the best to add to the end of the second paragraph?


Folk Art in America
Folk art, unlike fine art, is usually created by ordinary people for ordinary people. Paintings are a common form of folk art. They have been created in many countries for hundreds of years. In the United States, modern folk artists mostly worked in the Northeast, in Pennsylvania, New York, and New England.
Some American folk painters earned a living by painting commercial signs. The signs over shop doors told people what each shop sold. For example, a bakery usually had a painting of a freshly baked loaf of bread.

1. Portrait paintings were the most common form of American folk art.
2. These signs were bright, colorful, and made passers-by want to stop or call
3. Folk paintings are always pleasing to look at because they are so clear and simple.
4. Some paintings showed animals and buildings standing on top of each other or people toppling over.

Many folk painters traveled from place to place, creating art where they went. They would paint portraits of people who would pay them to do so. Folk artists also painted scenes of farms, mountains, meadows, and even ships and ports. These artists focused more on the decorative use of the art rather than the technique of making the art. This was what made folk paintings special.
