Children explore the world around them through intellectual, physical and emotional methods. All these factors play a part in their art. Painting helps children's coordination, gives children confidence, trains children's concentration, and helps children make friends. In my studio I try to make a friendly environment, and kids have fun during learning process. In depends of their age, and their skills, they have different project. Usually I start with free painting, and then step by step teach them the foundation of drawing and painting. I don’t want they just copy the picture, they will learn how to fit the object with their imaginations. During the learning process, they learn important elements of drawing and painting, such as Line, Shape, Color, Texture, form, Value, and Space. Also they learn oil pastel, watercolor, color pencil, Acrylic structure and technique, such as graduated, mixing, blending, negative and positive space, and they will understand how to use these techniques and apply them to their projects.

“All children are artists. The problem is how to remain an artist once he/she grows up”.
 -Pablo Picasso
