Special children with poor motor skills often have problems controlling the pressure of brush when they paint. This is usually seen in their paintings with bold strokes and thick lines. This takes time to practice and through repetition, children are able to control the pressure when painting. Teaching them to handle different types of brush will help them to paint better too. Sometimes to control the pressure of brush on the canvas, they must understand some key words like "touch"( low tone ) means "light and thin" line and "press"(longer tone) means "bold and thick" line. What seems easy for us may not be for them. Always put yourself in their shoes to understand their limitations.
