Pablo Picasso was a Cubist painter. Cubism is an art style where artists take different views of the same object and combine them in one piece of artwork. For example, in portraits, Pablo Picasso would combine a front view of a face with a profile. Second graders looked carefully at Picasso's Cubist portraits before creating their Cubist portrait collages. The project started out as monster portraits but some students were inspired by the alien stories they wrote in the classroom and turned their collages into aliens! Background images were made with craypas.

Collage Portraits
Second graders learned the placement of facial features and created portrait collages. The finished work was sent home as part of the Original Artworks fundraiser for the PTA.
