Wen Jia has developed her art skills substantially over the last few weeks.
She used to have the fear of picking up a pencil and start drawing something, most probably due to lack of the concept of shapes and dimensions. But who cares? We didn't even bother to send her for a "training" just for that. No, I don't think she need that. And i know what she needs. She just need more time from both her parents to encourage and nurture her as she gets along.
We observed and noticed that she felt excited when seeing her cousins did painting work with water color. There she goes, we bought a box of Buncho water color for her and did her first ever drawing and painting with her. I was proud to see her producing her first painting with very minimum help from us.
Besides, her coloring skill has improved so much and she has indeed exhibited a fair bit of creativity when comes to choosing her own color. Below coloring work with color pencils has seen her using colors of her choice without even following the pictures on the upper side which are pre-printed as a guide.
She has also started some paper art as part of her class work in Purity Learning session that she joins twice monthly.
This one is a paper art of a dinosaur that was created in recent class.
Overall, art works train her patience and concentration which is the key to learning.
