This research was made for developing an analysis of teaching methods used by the artist in his "Painting Children with creativity” course and their importance for the region. The Art Education issue has been placed in high priority within the education system in Brazil and it can greatly contribute to the analysis of the methods of the most respected Art teachers in the Presidente Prudente region, whose memory will be lost for lack of proper recording. The main objectives were the recovery and identification of methods of teaching Art used by the artist and art educator Takeo Sawada highlighting his work and teaching experience and analysis of its methodology, contextualizing it in the current teaching practice. The research was conducted with 10 former students, family and friends from Presidente Prudente and the methodology employed was the case study, through records and interviews focused. It can be observed that his attitude towards the students was based on a subtle and sometimes unnoticed presence that, given the difficulties, did not point directly to the solution but it made the student discover it. It is hoped that this research shows a pattern of conduct that can serve as educational scholarships for the training of future art teachers.
