Relasi adalah hal yang membuat adanya keterhubungan antara gambar ABB dengan gambar seni rupa tradisi.Metode penelitian ini adalah deskriptif kualitatif dengan pendekatan bahasa rupa. Bahasa rupa yang dipergunakan adalah isi wimba, cara wimba, diperbesar atau diperkecil. Hasil pene- litian ini diketahui bahwa cara gambar anak memiliki relasi dengan gambar seni rupa tradisi, yaitu cara wimba gambar ABB mempunyai karakteristik kemiripan dengan gambar seni rupa tradisi. Hal tersebut dapat diamati dari cara khas gambar anak yaitu objek figur digambarkan diatas rata tanah, aneka latar, aneka tampak, tembus pandang, objek yang besar dibuat penting, warna hÄ³au, komposisi simetris. Kemiripan tersebut karena anak-anak belum mengenal gam- bar perspektif dan gaya gravitasi pada gambar, hal yang sama juga ditemui dalam seni rupa seni tradisi sehingga mereka memiliki kecenderungan penggambaran cara wimba yang mirip. Sedangkan karakteristik gambar ABB dapat dilihat dari cara wimba figur yang menyerupai bagan, padahal untuk anak seusianya anak sudah melampaui bentuk tersebut.Â Kata kunci: Anak-anak, Bahasa rupa, Berkesulitan Belajar, Gambar, Seni rupa tradisi
