Child comes in the phase of symbol drawing at the age of 3. At that time, a certain shape becomes a symbol for a person, an object or something else. A certain shape can also become a symbol for a voice. This symbol is called a letter. In the pre-school and school periods, both drawing and writing develop. It is the manner of their development that I am interested in and which I researched in my diploma thesis. From the perspective of art language, I compared the articulation development of drawing (art signs) and writing (word signs) with children.
In the first part of my thesis, I presented art language and its various levels. In the second part, I described the development of children's drawing and its characteristics from the perspective of art language. In the third part, I discussed stages of children's writing and exemplified it with graphics. In the last, the fourth part, I made an art-lingual comparison based on actual examples of drawing and writing.
