It is divided into two parts, in the first theoretical part the art techniques and their division are briefly described, the tempera art technique is described in more detail, the types and methods of creation of tempera, as well as the materials needed for work and substrates, and at the end of the theoretical part the significance and development of color in children's art is described art creation. The second, research part of the work consists of a briefly described research methodology, presentation and analysis of children's work and discussion. The aim of the work was to determine whether there are differences in the artistic expression of preschool children with different approaches to painting using the tempera technique, painting with fingers and a brush. The way in which the children mixed the colors in the works and in which way they painted pictures with more details is also investigated. It was found that although there were differences, children painted images equally rich in detail to a greater extent.
