Özet: In Bloom Taxonomy (BT), creative and critical thinking are placed hierarchically each other as prerequisites in learning process. In this point, it is important to investigate students' metacognition skills to support their learning. However, creative thinking can be observed more in art than other fields. Therefore, relationship between the cognition skills of students in the visual arts education can be seen clearly. In literature, it is observed that BT needs to be also investigated in different educational disciplines such as the visual arts education. The purpose of this study is to propose a learning approach that can contribute to learning processes of students by investigating relationship between their critical and creative thinking skills in the theoretical basis of BT. The hypothesis as follows: “There is a significant positive relationship between creative thinking and critical thinking skills of visual arts students in the theoretical basis of BT”. This study was carried out in the descriptive relational research. In this research, Torrance Creative Thinking Test and California Critical Thinking Dispositions Inventory were used. According to the findings, it was found a significant positive relationship between students' creative thinking and critical thinking skills. By discussing of this result, learning approaches was proposed.
