Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 美術學系 === 97 === Through understanding the parent-child relationship, I’m afraid that my works would seem rather cosmetic and limited in form, and thus motivated to research in this issue. I make contacts with all kinds of children and their parents and family through my job as a teacher for children’s drawing.
The relationship between two generations is always intimate. Some are demanding to each other, some estranged, and some care and learn together. This kind of relationship usually involves more than a person or a generation; from a personal perspective, the sense of “family” deeply affects one’s value and idea of present and future. The matrimony of A and B means combination of two different familial values, and the C produced may inherit the good and the bad from this process. Although family affects the children largely and directly, it seems that some are still outstanding growing up in a harsh environment, and some achieve nothing with a rich background. The influence of family on children may vary, but it is certain a good environment and sense of family are still beneficial for them because the composition of a society consists of a network with different values among interactions.
This research focuses on the interactive relationship between parents and children. Interactions are most frequent during toddler period, and thus should be most intimate. Solely observing relationship between these two characters gives a scope further in depth on the issue interested.
Drawing is a necessary experience in the journey of a child’s growth. Observing the pattern of children’s drawings aides largely in understanding their motives of composition and real-life experiences. They draw based on their experiences and memories from a self-centered perspective freely and sincerely. During this stage of composing, some works cover the image and form of children paintings. Due to expectation to follow up this direction, thus information and paintings representing children’s course of growth were collected for research purpose.
This research discusses the sense of family exposed by Chinese and Western painters, as a topic of parenting, to relative painters known for children’s development, then finally finishes with works of famous parenting experts as the author’s core of composition.
