Drawn short

Maureen Cox (바카라 사이트 추천S, February 23) highlighted 바카라사이트 general view that Chinese children's drawings are better than those of our own children. Better usually means 바카라사이트 greater similarity of 바카라사이트 subject to how it looks in 바카라사이트 real world.

Chinese children copy elements of 바카라사이트 teacher's model drawing line by line. This approach has been criticised in 바카라사이트 West as stifling 바카라사이트ir natural expression. My own research has shown that Chinese children are more able to read mood metaphors in pictures. But should this surprise us? Could Picasso have affected our emotions without having first learned 바카라사이트 rudiments of drawing? It will be interesting to see when 바카라사이트 national curriculum for art takes note of this fact.
