A vital factor in every child’s development is the
stimulation of active imagination and creativity. This book presents
ideas that encourage self-expression through the medium of watercolors.
Fundamental and practical, this book is based on Goethe’s color theory,
showing that painting with children is more than merely a form of
self-expression—Brunhild Müller encourages the reader to understand
children’s fantasies and inner being through their artworks.
This is an essential guide for parents and teachers. It covers
preparation, color stories and poems, and painting the moods of nature
and seasons of the year.
