I write to you on behalf of “Holistic Education Book Launch (Five Volumes) for School Children (I to V) in Chennai”
The art of drawing is being introduced methodically and systematically in the curriculum of primary schools of Tamilnadu for the first time ever by the award-winning and consummate artist and social activist N. Swarnalatha. She is the only artist from south India who won #100 Women Achievers of India, receiving the award and citation from the then President of India, Shri Pranab Mukherjee. Not only was the award an honour and a tribute to her campaign for social issues through her art, but it was a motivator for her to continue her mission with greater passion and commitment.
For the first time, after a lot of research and curation, under the initiative of Swarnalatha , primary school from classes 1-5 will be learning a step-by-step approach to line drawing. These line drawing workbooks have been created exclusively to plug the gaps in education and fulfill the imperative need to teach students art in a simple, easy and interesting manner. These line drawing workbooks offer the right approach to teach drawing for beginners and with simple practice any teacher would be able to guide the students.
Such quality introduction and training for beginners in line drawing will help promote creative thinking among students to a large extent and help them evolve into holistic individuals who can contribute effectively in any field as adults.
