No matter the medium, creating art in a studio setting facilitates children's need to express and share their work with others.
This young artist discusses her artistic process with her mother as she paints and collages beside her.
Another artist duo busily create a complex "electrical circuit" out of clay. The endeavor began when the boy noticed that the holes he created by pushing popsicle sticks into clay resembled an electrical outlet.
He bursts with enthusiasm as they work together with the clay, talking about the piece, directing what should go where, and sharing his excitement.
In this way, children build vocabulary as well as relationship and socialization skills as the process of art becomes a means of expression.
