The third graders finally met the very famous artist, Pablo Picasso.
Well, I should say... they were introduced to Picasso's artwork,
specifically his portraiture. In keeping with Picasso's style of
Cubism, the third graders are creating a single self portrait taken from
multiple angles. By combining the frontal and profile views of their
face, the self portraits take on an abstract quality. The use of five
intersecting lines and a warm and cool color scheme further pushes the
self portraits into abstraction.
