IMPACT OF DIFFERENT ART TECHNIQUES ON CREATIVE USE OF COLOUR AT EXPRESSING ART IN PRE-SCHOOL PERIOD

Diplomsko delo obsega teoretični in empirični del. Teoretični del je razdeljen na štiri poglavja. V njem smo poiskali odgovore na vprašanja, kaj je ustvarjalnost in zakaj je pomembna v vsakdanjem življenju, kako poteka razvoj likovnega izražanja ter kaj je barva in kakšen vpliv ima na ljudi. V prvem poglavju sta opisana razvoj likovnega izražanja in njegovi okvirni mejniki, predstavljena so področja likovne umetnosti, njihova likovna izrazila in likovne tehnike, ki so primerne za delo s predšolskimi otroki. Opredelili smo ustvarjalnost kot splošno človekovo lastnost in odgovorili na vprašanje, kakšne so lastnosti ustvarjalnih ljudi. Zapisali smo tudi nekaj o likovni ustvarjalnosti, kako jo spodbujamo in kateri so dejavniki, ki jo zavirajo. Zadnje poglavje v teoretičnem delu diplomskega dela opisuje, kaj je barva, njene dimenzije, odnose, kako različne barve vplivajo na psihofizične sposobnosti ljudi in kako poteka razvoj likovnega izražanja z barvo. V empiričnem delu diplomskega dela smo izvedli raziskavo, s katero smo želeli ugotoviti, ali so otroci ustvarjalni pri uporabi barve v svojih likovnih delih. Zanimalo nas je tudi, ali na otroke pri likovnem izražanju preveč vplivajo šablone in barvni znaki. Iskali pa smo tudi odgovore na vprašanji, ali lahko uporaba različnih likovnih tehnik pri likovno-pedagoškem delu vpliva na ustvarjalno mišljenje otrok in katera likovna tehnika najbolj spodbuja ustvarjalno uporabo barve pri likovnem izražanju otrok.The thesis consists of theoretical and empirical part. The theoretical part is divided into four chapters. It answers the questions about what creativity is and why it is important in everyday life, about the development of plastic art expression, what colour is and how it influences people. The first part is about development of plastic art expression and its milestones, there is also an overview of the scope of arts, its expressions and plastic art techniques which are appropriate for pre-school children. Creativity is defined as a general human characteristic and we answered the question of what characteristics of creative people are. There is also something about plastic art creativity, how it is encouraged and what are the obstacles for creativity development. The last chapter in the theoretical part is about colour, its dimensions, relationships, the influence of different colours on physical and psychical abilities of people,and about the development of plastic art expression with colour. The empirical part describes the research which was made and aimed to find out whether children are creative in using colour in their art works. We also wanted to find out about the influence of templates and colour marks on their plastic art expression. We wanted to find the answer to the question whether use of different plastic art techniques influences creative thinking of children and which plastic art technique is the most encouraging for creative use of colour in plastic art expression of children
