Children's art is generally under-rated and under-appreciated. Most of the time, they are given supplies like dull construction paper that fades quickly and crayons that are more wax than pigment. In these conditions, could you create something you would want to hang in your home?
Pablo Picasso said, "All children are artists. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up." Children are naturally creative and work with an instinctual sense of abandon. They have fabulous line quality and original ideas, but they rarely have access to decent materials or learn principles of art and design to refine their work.
During a course of 10 weeks, these artists, all between the ages of 5 and 8, worked with high quality materials. They focused on specific elements of art and design, and learned a variety of media and techniques. Each one of these young artists created beautiful, finished works of art.
Here are some pictures of the show taken at the closing reception.
