Commonsense Aesthetics of Rural Children.
Freeman, Norman H.; Sanger, Daniella
Visual Arts Research, v21 n2 (Issue 42) p1-10 Fall 1995
Summarizes interviews with British West Indies children concerning the production of art and the role of the artist. Demonstrates that children's perceptions undergo a shift from naive realism (pretty things make pretty pictures) to a more interpretive stance (the artist's efforts define the final product). (MJP)
