Art
Hi Fourth Grade!
I hope you have been able to get outside and enjoy the beautiful flowers! Were you able to create flower drawings and use your color theory? I enjoyed "considering the pansies" in my artwork. haha

This week we are looking at Pablo Picasso and some of his works. We will create an abstract portrait inspired by Picasso. Please view the video titled, "Introduction to Pablo Picasso" first. You may then move on to the videos titled, " Picasso portrait", Parts 1-4. ( modified April 29)
I hope you enjoy creating a Picasso portrait. He was instrumental in the modern art world. He created the Cubist style of drawing and painting. He created a new way of "seeing" art and allowed other artists to create in their very own style.
Remember to have fun and share your work with me. I love seeing all your creations!
Miss you!
Mrs. Touchton
