A Brief Analysis of Foreign Art Education
? German Art Education, the first foreign education book contacted by the university, introduces that under the German cultural background, German art education not only retains the characteristics of national thinking and order, but also absorbs the advantages of tolerance and pluralism, forming a fairly flexible teaching model. From the perspective of our art education, German art education has a strong personality and is deeply inspired: in the following years, I read art books from several countries, among which Japanese art education is particularly prominent in the art education in the new era, and its main purpose is to cultivate students' personality and creativity. This view is also clarified in the new curriculum standard of art education in China, but because this standard is still in the state of exploration and perfection in teaching practice, there are still many immature places. Some teachers and parents paint for the sake of painting. The same stick figure, without innovation, is purely copying, which not only limits children's innovative ability, but also obliterates their personality.

? Combining the advantages of foreign art education and the actual situation of art education, this paper talks about some immature ideas.

First, a variety of teaching methods and colorful teaching materials enlighten children's wisdom.

? In primary schools, according to children's age characteristics, facing children who have just arrived from kindergarten to primary school, the school implements the first and second grade placement. The teacher is clear about the syllabus and content of the subjects he teaches, and there is no daily schedule. What the teacher teaches can be adapted to the situation. For example, a beautiful butterfly suddenly appears in the classroom, and the child's attention naturally follows the butterfly. At this time, the teacher's teaching content changes with butterflies, so that students can observe the dynamics and shapes of butterflies and introduce the types of butterflies. Draw butterflies with colored strokes. Combine common sense, Chinese, art and other courses to achieve better teaching results. Here, I realized the horizontal connection of disciplines and the flexibility of teaching, which is quite similar to our comprehensive practice class, but there seems to be a lack of a transitional stage in China, which makes teachers suddenly change from a herd state to an arbitrary state, and the result is bound to be chaos and failure.

? Second, cultivate students' personality.

The goal of foreign art education is to "expand the ability of expression and appreciation, cultivate the psychology of loving art and cultivate noble sentiments on the basis of experiencing the fun of modeling creation activities." The significance of art education lies in helping every child form a profound and independent self. Therefore, art education must consider creating a good environment for designers in production. In a subtle way, guide children's hobbies and cultivate aesthetic taste. Art education can make every student experience the beauty of nature, human beings and society, feel the joy of art performance and appreciation, and enrich children's hearts. At the same time, it also cultivates students' perfect personality in this process. The main goal of art education is to create constantly through exploration and discovery with one's own feelings, feelings and thoughts as the basic starting point. Feel the dynamic things in the real life environment. Excite your mind and publicize yourself. Therefore, all kinds of production experience and skills are naturally formed in this process, not an end in itself. With the improvement of skills, thinking in images is more involved in the performance process, and it is impossible to expand the expressive force by training skills alone. In this respect, life experience and knowledge literacy play a positive role.

? Third, pay attention to the cultivation of creativity in art teaching, give children broad thinking space, and let children express their feelings independently in different ways.

In art teaching, the cultivation of creativity should first attach importance to creative thinking, which is characterized by divergent thinking. Regarding divergent thinking, American psychologist Kilford thinks: "Creative thinking means that when facing an object, imagine that ideas will be reorganized to produce new results and make various choices." In the syllabus, the cultivation of creativity has been emphasized from primary school to middle school, and the behavior process of creativity is emphasized in teaching. I seem to pay more attention to the effect of students' homework than my own teaching. I should find a better way to distract students' thinking and produce good works in future classes.

Speaking of our education, the ubiquitous educational phenomenon restricts our art education.

First of all, when the child is in kindergarten, teachers and parents teach him to copy stick figures without thinking. The quality of painting is based on the stick figure book, which requires them to draw the image neatly and evenly. In the future, they will learn more complicated stick figures in painting classes. No matter what painting he draws, it will be a stick figure pattern and will not have its own characteristics. Teachers, parents and students all think that "the painting is neat, vivid and even in color" is a good children's painting. Imagine, when all children's paintings are a stick figure style, what else is worth seeing? Really? "Children's painting" has long attracted prescient scholars and modern masters. Some people call children "artists" and "geniuses". They spoke highly of childish, naive, abstract and romantic children's paintings, which are called "children's painting art". The stick figure is a "children's painting" summed up by adult thinking. If 100 children learn this kind of painting, there will be a hundred paintings with the same style, which greatly limits the development of personality.

Second, copying teaching is thoughtless, innovative and individualistic. Children's psychology tells us that children are in a vulnerable stage, and most children are easily influenced by others, especially parents. Their "well-intentioned" advice actually hurts them, because the standard of "painting well" in most parents' minds is to paint like an image, and they often rudely comment on their children's paintings, for example. After such hardships, children who are good at painting, like painting and confident will become very insecure, the image of the picture will become smaller and smaller, and the number of revisions will increase, thus forming a vicious circle.

? Third, when copying, students don't have to make aesthetic choices of composition, don't know the real space and modeling, have no experience of direct observation and verification, and have no artistic practice of imitating and expressing painting language with nature as a teacher, so their thinking activities are greatly restricted. Psychology tells us that "the more active the thinking activity, the greater the gain of observation". Long-term copying teaching has blocked students' visual senses and restricted the development of students' hands and brains. Students trained in this way can only imitate and draw according to the samples drawn by models. Once they sketch objects and remember, think and create them, there is nothing they can do. They can't see with their eyes, think with their brains, draw with their hands and create. Sensory organ education has great limitations. Our aim is not to train painters, sculptors and pattern designers, but to improve students' aesthetic taste and artistic level in this golden age of knowledge, and at the same time cultivate students' innovative ability, observation ability, memory ability and imagination ability, develop image thinking and abstract thinking, and promote the all-round development of morality, intelligence, physique and beauty. As a teacher, we should first make clear the teaching objectives of painting class, arrange interesting teaching contents, cultivate students' observation and expression abilities, give full play to students' imagination and creativity, make students improve in an all-round way and develop actively, and truly reflect the quality of classroom teaching.

In the process of teaching abroad, create a beautiful environment for students, inspire students how to feel and discover, let students realize the beauty potential of things themselves, and respect students' different feelings and performances of people and things. Cultivate students' ability to analyze problems independently from an early age, let students solve problems independently, and have the possibility of diversified choices according to different objects. This coincides with our teaching philosophy. Only by diluting the authority of teachers and making friends with students can we better help students discover and express beauty.

? In our education, we should guide students to open their minds and fully imagine; Students discuss with each other, say what they want to draw, complement each other and improve their ideas; Look at all kinds of pictures and videos and learn to observe the real thing; Appreciate excellent children's paintings, tell them what's good and what's different about their works. Arrange students to observe after class and find that students can be taught to innovate boldly and broaden the content of teaching materials through divergent thinking. In homework evaluation, we should create relaxed development conditions for students' innovative consciousness and creativity without giving them any pressure. No matter how students draw, they should say words of encouragement, encourage students to give full play to their talents and express themselves in a personalized way. Pay attention to protecting and developing everyone's uniqueness and hobbies, and cultivate students' meticulous and fearless spirit.

? Through the integration of art education in China and foreign education, we have reason to think that the choice of art teaching conforms to the development law of "children", and the promotion of "children's painting" is the initial teaching stage. After "children's painting" enters the visual realism stage, it chooses the teaching development path of scientific sketch imitation teaching and artistic memory creation teaching. It can not only get rid of the bondage of copying and imitation to creativity, but also ensure the enlightenment and continuous and smooth development of children's creativity, and it is also the best teaching method that can make realistic ability and creativity develop in parallel.
