Teaching Art, Part 3: Picasso

Here's what we did for last month's Art Masters project:

We were given line drawings in Picasso style to mimic.  But the trick was that we had to turn it upside down and draw the lines and curves we saw, rather than the image we were perceiving.  Once you turn it back right side, you should have something interesting.  As shown above, my completed drawing ended up looking like a pouty woman.

There were many images to choose from, and here are a few finished products from the 4th grade class.

My personal fave is the last one.  And I'm not just saying that because it was L's.  Ok, yes I am.
