“To all parents I would say therefore: Encourage your children to take an interest in art, to develop aesthetic ideas and ideals—give them every opportunity to advance in art work of any kind. Foster a liking for drawing whenever it is shown by a child—such a liking may have very far-reaching results, for ‘from small beginnings great endings do spring,’ and the early art efforts of the child should not be curbed but encouraged, if not as a means of future livelihood … then, if I may use the word in this connection, as an alchemy in the forming of the ultimate character of the individual.” (PR38, “The Importance of Art Training”)
