PRESIDENT’S SPEECH
People advocate art, so people can shake the soul of the works of art to astronomical estimates in the history, which is the art of high evaluation and appreciation.
However, people’s eyes only stare at the art itself, but never noticed the creation of art works itself difficult spiritual history. In fact, the process of creation is extremely important.
The 1-3-year-old is training the brain in artistic creation, activating every neuron in the most intelligent brain of the human being.5-year-olds are looking for future hobbies during each painting. They concentrate on drawing each painting, are open for their own wisdom door. 6-10 years old, is a child with wings of the process, dreams and ideals are intertwined, so this period stage the children are artists. This stage is an important period of nurturing artists, the genius and The Prodigy were also cultivated during this period. 11-15 years old is the realistic period, the human brain at this time, whether language or intelligence is very sound and perfect, through a year of sketching and color exercises can solve the art of realism and molding ability. I can only encourage parents, do not rush to let children into the practical practice, unless they are already in the age of 8, and is a veritable creative talent, before the completion of art performance techniques. In short, before the age of 10 art emphasis on experience, focusing on intelligence, focusing on the perfect shape of personality.
When you are a secondary student, when you are an adult, when you want to take art as a hobby, like a secondary student love to play chess, love to play basketball, love to swim, as long as it is to adhere to their own art hobby, it is your lifelong benefit of the spiritual activities, like the pianist playing if you want to be an artist–an artist with a flair, temperament, and talent–it’s your choice. Of course, you want to become a truly cross-era artist, but also need to undergo the baptism of historical water and fire, to produce a good art works!
