One of the art's most explored areas is the development of children's artistic expression and children's artworks. Interest in children's art has been growing during the recent years. Psychologists, pedagogues and other expert teams successfully use children's artwork in their diagnostic, therapeutic and counselling work as one of the methods to get to know the child's personality, his motor skills, coordination, and spatial orientation. Even today, the interest in children's creativity has not diminished. Everything a child does in the art field should be met with praise and excitement as his personal achievement. This paper examines the possibilities of creating artwork by the different art type of children according to the set motifs. Primary objective of this research is to determine the belonging of the first grade elementary school pupils to a certain art type. The research represents a study of children’s artwork and it consisted of sixteen kids, age seven. There is a detailed elaboration of what kind of art type is each child in this research. Children spent several classes painting, drawing and modelling visual and non-visual motifs in optimal working conditions (material, space). The results were interpreted and compared with the characteristics of the art expression of the children of the aforementioned age. Research results have shown that most of the children are visual and analytical type, intellectual and trained in art type, graphical and colouristic type, and conscientious type.
