Abstract
During the last years, different authors from disciplines such as cognitive science or psychology have felt interested in analyzing how artists are immersed in an artistic task. This issue is somehow related to the notion of extended cognitive systems. In previous papers, we have showed how it is possible to characterize the “feeling” of a draftsman when he draws through some properties of the hand-tool coupling. Now, we will show new results obtained recently that allow us to define a more complete view on this phenomena and play a crucial role both in the perception either the understanding of the intentions of artists when they are immerse in a sensorimotor process. Finally, we will propose that art teachers can use this knowledge didactically in their classes.
