One of the jury members of the competition, Prof. Dr. Hayri Esmer in his speech; “When you think of children's pictures, colorful, chirpy, freely drawn pictures come to mind. In fact, the pictures that children draw carry more than that. They describe the world they imagine, not the world they see. Therefore, while examining children's pictures, we should look at these pictures by forgetting what we know. They have their own imagination, they can represent the human state of being.”
