Picasso - Self-Portrait in the Cubist Style
Picasso
Picasso at Work Video
Picasso developed a style known as Cubism. Cubism is an abstract art form that was influenced by Egyptian, African and Native American art. Cubist art is very flat and angular, and shows multiple views of an object, such as the front and side, in the same composition.
Cubism
Picasso started as a traditional painter, but his style changed over the years.
Take a look at the many moods of Picasso in the video below:
Your assignment today is to draw a Self - portrait based on Picasso's Cubist Style. Watch the video below for instructions:
There is paper at your desk, there are sharpies in the box for your outlines of your portraits, and there are crayons on the wire shelf in the middle of the room. MAKE SURE YOU PUT BACK ALL MATERIALS WHERE YOU FOUND THEM!!!!
Mr. B will pick up the portraits when you have completed them, be sure to add your NAME and BLOCK on the back of your portrait.
