Abstract
This article seeks to examine young children’s drawing development through three main discussion areas. The first area describes historical perspectives, looking at a time-line of research into children’s drawing and the changing attitudes towards the child as artist. Secondly, stage theories of drawing and artistic development are described and discussed. Finally, consideration is given to debates around stage theory, moving into current philosophical trends. The article draws an evolutionary journey from these three perspectives, offering opportunities for further debate and study.
