Compared with adults, children are romantics and egoists, and they all have extraordinary imagination. Their painting process is completely uncertain, unprofessional and unconscious. The absurd figures, irregular trees, houses and streets they painted do not conform to the anatomical features and dynamics of the characters.
All this was done quickly without paying attention to all the details. All this proves that children are more like primitive people. They are creators and producers, not imitators and bystanders. What they try their best to express belongs to everything they want to express. They don't care whether society and objectivity allow it or not, and they don't care whether the audience understands it.
Psychological characteristics of children s painting;
Children like painting because of their own physiological needs and psychological needs. When we are engaged in children's art education, we must study the psychology and characteristics of children's painting, otherwise we will not be able to correctly evaluate children's painting, and it will be difficult to coach children's painting. The primary school stage should be divided into three periods according to the age of children: schema period 6-8 years old.
The realistic tendency period is 9- 1 1 year, and the realistic period is after 12 years (relatively speaking, there will be progress and retreat). Art teachers should cultivate children's interest according to their psychology and painting characteristics in different periods, so as to improve their painting level.
