Sensitivity and Creativity are hard to understand. One thing that struck me very forcibly was the fascinating
fingerpaintings my oldest daughter did before she started school. For instance seeing Walt Disney's "Alice in Wonderland" led her to make some fingerpaintings that were very interesting. I still very much regret that the paper that came with the paints was so cheap it lasted only a few months..
But within a very short time of her starting school, her artwork became stilted, unimaginative and totally boring. I guess artists are just lucky in not having lost their childhood imagination.
