By means of visual arts and visual expression children are able to express emotions, develop imagination and develop thinking. By using visual arts the child shows innovation and develops critical thinking. Painting techniques are one of the forms of visual expression that encourage children to develop creativity, imagination, freedom of dealing with objects when using paint material. In painting techniques, the child can spontaneously and freely express his emotions, experiences in color, shape, lines, planks, etc. The task of the educator is to stimulate the emotional and artistic development of the child. When we encourage a child to get acquainted with art, we motivate him to free, openly expressing emotions with the help of creative art. For the development of children's visual skills, as well as children's artistic talent, the influence of a teacher who gives a child great freedom, no criticism, no teaching, no suggestion or counsel is important. It is important to achieve a warmth, acceptance, and admiration. One of the most important processes in developing a child's personality is emotional development. Emotional development is a result of the mutual influence of inherited mechanisms of responding to emotional situations and processes of socialization in the family and the immediate child's environment. In touch with the visual arts, we contribute to the aesthetic, intellectual, emotional, social and cultural development of children.
