The introduction
to an exhibition of children's work in Anne Savage's calligraphy,
shown here, illustrates her ideas about art education. It is
a reflection of the era as well as an indication her philosophy
of teaching.
About
teachers, she once wrote:
"The
outstanding quality that a teacher must have is absolute belief
in the power of the child to find his own way...no mistakes
are possible, no criticism, only appreciation and delight in
the doing." - A.S.
