Thoughtful Thinking: Art Book

This book of art by Daksha Patel does the job of simplifying art for children. Children can learn the art of drawing, painting or producing any art work, whether they are in a classroom or at home. Art is an important subject because it can be used in important professions like science, with the drawing of cells under a microscope or drawing organs in the human body to be studied. Many artists spend their time producing works of art to sell, or even hang in an art gallery. Furthermore, it is the artists who can produce comics and cartoons for children's television. These days, you can find the works of classical and modern artists on the internet. Art can go cross-curricular in many subjects too. Like building, for example. Many buildings are build to be aesthetically pleasing to the eyes. Art work can transform our environment. People have been painting their houses for ages, both inside and outside. This book teaches art in a mathematical way, so that children can draw more easily and it de-mystifies the subject to make it easier for children to learn and understand. Art is all around us. We only need to open our eyes to see it and feel its transforming power to evoke deep emotions in us when we view the different art works coming from the many different cultures of today, especially in the art galleries.
