Workshop on Fairy Art

By Maria Degtyareva

The second International children competition “Fairy Tales of a Beautiful Heart” under the aegis of UNESCO started in Peredelkino near Moscow. Its participants write fairy tales, make illustrations and animation films. Instead of official ceremony, the organizers arranged workshops in painting and animation.

Masha Shustova is making illustration to Polish fairy tale “Magic Mountain”. She easily decided how to draw a dragon – it will have seven heads and fiery eyes. It’s not so easy to draw the hero – a boy searching for life-giving water to save his mother. It’s necessary to convey his character. “This boy kills a dragon, although he himself is weak. But he has faith in victory. Now people don’t believe in wonders, but he does believe,” the young participant says.

The task to draw the brave boy was given by Maria Dreznina, an artist and a teacher of the children studio of Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts. Being an art-therapy specialist, the author of the unique method that helps to bring out child’s full creative potential, Maria is sure that every child is an artist.

The writers centre in Peredelkino turned to a real factory of fairy tales. Now here children are taught to make animation films and write scripts. This is a festival “Our Art Changes the World”, where talented children are learning with professionals. “It is really important to know each other. We don’t know the future of these children, but now they can communicate with each other and with be. This is a wonderful creative process,” Maria Dresnina says.

All these children are the winners of the international competition “Fairy Tales of a Beautiful Heart”. Their works were chosen from 4000 animation films, fairy illustration and magic stories from 20 countries. The President of the organizing committee, Tatyana Shakhnovskaya says: “When we started this competition the idea was to help children have a kind and positive attitude to this world. We want to shoot these workshops and send to different regions. We have participants in small towns and villages, and such methodical support is very important for them.” This is an allcomers competition. The main thing is you should do you art work yourself and with beautiful heart.
