Form as Metaphor: A Comparison of Aesthetic Structure in Young Children's Pictures and Stories.
Zurmuehlen, Marilyn
Studies in Art Education, v24 n2 p111-17 1983
Kellogg and O'Dell's criteria for designating children's art as pictures and Pitcher and Prelinger's collection of stories from children were examined for analogous patterns of structure. Results indicated that form, derived from a structure of repetition, is embodied by children as a metaphor for pictures or stories. (Author/SR)
