Children start to draw abstract lines/figures that we call in french « gribouillis » and, then, they get to draw figuratives pictures that represent what they see.

Hyperealist painting is that the absolute goal of our brain? I think it is not the only one. We like poems, not only bibliographies.
It is sure that abstract art is more complexe than the gribouillis of a child. But, are they letting the child in them come back?
Or being able to do abstract art you need the capacity of abstraction and that is something we get in adolescence? I dont know
