Art culture serves students to express their thoughts, experiences and feelings. It affects the overall development of students (cognitive, emotional, social, critical and creative). The individual abilities of students and their needs for expression are nurtured. This is why art education is especially important for students. Emotions are present from the very birth of a child. Children express them in different ways as they grow up and feel them increasingly. There are primary, secondary and background emotions. Children do not always know how to express their emotions, either because of external stimuli, the environment, or their own temperament. Artistic expression is very important here. Students should be encouraged to express their emotions through visual and non-visual motives. Their feelings are best seen through the symbolism and psychology of colors, lines, disproportion, exaggeration of motives and shapes during the developmental stages of artistic expression that the child goes through. It is particularly important to know through which topic the child can express himself best. In the selection of topics, emotionally close topics and those with which they can express their emotional experiences are offered. After the artistic expression itself, you should talk with the child about the work, its meaning and how satisfied the child is with his work and how it makes him feel. Through this form of expression, children gain more self-confidence, express their emotions more openly and have a better image of themselves and the world. This paper discusses the emotional and artistic development of children and their connection. An attempt will be made to prove that the emotional relationship of the presented content in relation to colors, lines and proportions is more emphasized in the students of the 1st and 2nd grades than in the students of the 3rd and 4th grades.
