It is done through the use of a case study that focuses on six different emotional states observed in an autistic child. This study focuses on the background, concepts, and significance of autism by providing a comprehensive explanation. The observation and analysis of drawings created by autistic child are then examined by using a qualitative approach.

The study aims to use this research to examine the better emotional state of autistic children. In addition, it also helps in figuring out how those children communicate their emotions through drawings. The study will observe the patterns and ways in the drawings and will relate them to six different emotional conditions.
