For this assignment sixth graders learned about the life and work of Pablo Picasso. We discussed his cubist period and the impact it had on the art world. Students used oil pastels, water pastels, and colored pencils to create cubist works of art. We started this lesson by reading a one page biography on Picasso's life that I found here. We then looked at a presentation exhibiting some of Picasso's cubist work and analyzed the characteristics they possessed. You can find my presentation on my Prezi page here.The kids showed some great craftsmanship on this assignment. We shaded with our colored pencils to create some depth in the work, which became a little time consuming. For the oil pastel and water pastel we colored in fully. After we had filled in every shape we went back around them with black colored pencil to create outlines. The full lesson can be found here.
