Many autistic children can draw. Are all painting geniuses?

Many autistic children can draw, not all of them are painting geniuses.

Extended data:

Not all autistic children are painting geniuses, but many autistic children have strong artistic expression ability, and they have great difficulties in language expression, so God has opened an artistic window for them.

One of the characteristics of patients with autism spectrum disorder is that they have certain obstacles in using verbal communication. They want to say it, but they can't. The sounds they make are just meaningless shouts, and some people can't even communicate with words at all.

It is also difficult for them to understand facial expressions and body language, so it is difficult for them to understand some jokes and sarcastic tone. Because of the different neural connections, it is difficult for them to learn reading, writing, organizing and planning skills like normal children.

However, many autistic children are gifted beyond ordinary people in art, and they can use pictures to express their ideas, which has become an important channel for them to communicate with the outside world. Because art is the strong point of autistic children, we should consciously cultivate this strong point, so as to enhance the self-confidence of autistic children and make them better adapt to social life.

Painting usually includes what to draw, what to use, how to find materials, how to draw a work, cleaning up, sharing the painting with people around, and so on. And it can also improve children's cognitive level and coordination ability.

For autistic children, art therapy may be a more effective training method than traditional art classes. Therapists will also integrate the treatment of autistic children into painting courses, so as to better improve their social skills. In addition, some children can't adapt to the large classroom teaching environment, and one-on-one counseling by therapists is more targeted and more suitable for children.

Letting autistic children learn painting is one of the most researched and theoretical methods in art therapy. At the same time, seeking a breakthrough from children's endowment is also a new way of thinking, which can change or improve the situation of autism, help patients achieve the goal of physical and mental integration, and ultimately help autistic children.
