An Investigation of Children’s Verbal Responses to Selected Art Styles

Abstract

This investigation focused on children’s verbal responses concerning why they preferred a selected art style in picture illustration. Data analyses revealed that children who preferred a cartoon style were influenced by the style of illustration, mood, and color. Children who preferred the photographic style were influenced by the realism and color of the illustrations. I interpreted the results to support the viewpoint that children equate cartoon style with pretend subject content and photographic style with real life subject content. Preference for realism increased with grade level.
