My Project

Art is the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be appreciate. Some may regard art education as a luxury, simple creative activities are some of the building blocks of child development.

Learning to create and appreciate visual aesthetics may be more important than ever to the development of the next generation of children as they grow up.d primarily for their beauty or emotional power.

Why is art so important? Because.

Art can help us understand our history, our culture, our lives, and the experience of others in a manner that cannot be achieved through other means. It can also be a source of inspiration, reflection, and joy. The major goal of art is to communicate their own unique talents, strengths, weaknesses and abilities or his/her to express their individuality in a social environment. Also, their interests, hobbies and way of learning these are what made them special. We love them.
