Title
The development of artistically gifted children: Selected case studies
Abstract
This collection of 6 case studies provides a longitudinal account of the development of children who can be variously described as gifted in the visual arts. We use this term in a very broad sense that includes those who as young adults choose art as their major vocation, as well as children who show an early fascination with drawing, attested by their large output, intense interest and, at times, unusual facility in rendering objects naturalistically. The longitudinal accounts highlight significant individual differences in the personality and style of the young artists reviewed here, and also cast into sharp relief the different perspectives the authors bring to their narratives. The developmental profiles focus on a diversity of motivating factors that propel their Ss to explore their chosen artistic medium and acquires the techniques that enable them to give form to their particular view of the world. Beyond factors that seem to inhere in the child, authors address the impact of environmental forces, including the family, schooling, and diverse social, cultural, and economic factors. In bringing together this collection of cases, our aim was to sketch the variety of ways in which talented children develop their interest in the visual arts.

Usamos este término en un sentido muy amplio que incluye a aquellos que, como adultos jóvenes, eligen el arte como su principal vocación, así como a los niños que muestran una fascinación temprana por el dibujo, atestiguada por su gran producción, su intenso interés y, a veces, su inusual facilidad para representar los objetos de manera naturalista. Los relatos longitudinales ponen de relieve las diferencias individuales significativas en la personalidad y el estilo de los jóvenes artistas aquí reseñados, y también ponen de relieve las diferentes perspectivas que los autores aportan a sus narrativas. Los perfiles de desarrollo se centran en una diversidad de factores motivadores que impulsan a su Ss a explorar el medio artístico elegido y adquiere las técnicas que le permiten dar forma a su visión particular del mundo. Más allá de los factores que parecen ser inherentes al niño, los autores abordan el impacto de las fuerzas ambientales, incluyendo la familia, la escolarización y diversos factores sociales, culturales y económicos. Al reunir esta colección de casos, nuestro objetivo fue esbozar la variedad de formas en que los niños talentosos desarrollan su interés por las artes visuales.
