While many people recognize gifted children as those who excel in language arts and mathematics, the identification of students with potential or demonstrated talent in the arts is an area which needs attention. Art work should be the result of imagination and creativity that the child expresses in the work he or she does. Although only ten years old, Kabir Gupta, a resident of Vasant Vihar, has been experiencing and expressing art at an early age. "Art is a source of self-expression. It's an outlet for feelings and thoughts," says his mother, who keeps his art material around the house so that Kabir can experiment with colors. She also encourages Kabir to sing as he has a keen interest in music as well. "I don't care if my son becomes an artist, but I try to expose him to a lot of things. Art fits naturally with what children love to do. They love to draw, paint, and dance or play pretend. I hope he enjoys these experiences and discovers the things he's good at. As of now Kabir likes to draw Dragon Ball Z cartoons ------with a lot of perfection. These are a few pictures from his collection.
