Artistic talent of future fine arts teachers. Problem Setting

The article is devoted to the hitherto poorly studied question of the nature and specificity of determining the subject-pedagogical abilities of a drawing teacher. The article describes the study, the purpose of which was to identify artistic abilities, the relationship between artistic and pedagogical abilities and the study of individual psychological characteristics of subjects. During the studies, it was possible to identify four significant factors of subject abilities. It is noted that the indicators of pedagogical abilities that determine the orientation of the teacher to the person are most closely related to subject abilities. The author also notes that the basic prerequisites for subject abilities are the lower levels of individuality, i.e. the natural ability to creativity.
