ART & CREATIVITY

Crayawns explores the connection between artistic expression, creativity, visual thinking and the way the human mind develops.

No one is born in this world without a purpose
NO CHILD IS BORN WITHOUT A PURPOSE.

LOOK AGAIN. SEE WHAT CHILDREN CAN CREATE.

WHY CRAYAWNS EXISTS

Crayawns began with Mariko’s artwork and the joy of sharing her drawings with people around the world. What started with art and greeting cards grew into a deeper interest in artistic expression, creativity, visual thinking and the development of the mind.One of the questions that shaped Crayawns was the artistic ability of children with dyslexia. We wanted to look closely at their visual and artistic strengths and give their work a place to be seen.

EVERY CHILD SEES DIFFERENTLY

Children's art gives us a glimpse into imagination, creativity and individual ways of seeing the world.

EVERY CHILD HAS A GIFT

Crayawns celebrates the artistic talents of every child, including children with dyslexia.
