background

the beginning
In 1970 Marja de Jong started giving
painting-lessons to young children.
It began with the request of a mother who specially wanted Marja de Jong to
give her child lessons in drawing and painting. Three to eighteen-year-old
children now work weekly under her inspiring guidance. The AllaprimA
foundation has organized special exhibitions with the results of these
drawing-lessons and is publishing a book with children's drawings and paintings.

work expressively
The general aim of expressive creation is to teach children to observe and
experience in a conscious way.
Children learn to convert this observing and experiencing into two- and
three-dimensional images. They become aware of what they see, hear, feel and
experience. They learn to be open to coincidences, to changes and several
solutions to a problem. This fundamental attitude can be developed within
the field of expressive creation.
