Cubist Oil Pastel Portraits


The classic Picasso Cubist portrait lesson!

I introduced Grade 5 students to Picasso's colorful Cubist portraits. We discussed the style and elements in his works. They did a practice sketch then drew their good copy on black construction paper. 


Then they were coloured using oil pastels. 
Students were encouraged to mix and layers colours. 


Some Grade 5 finished portraits:
