On the 9th of March Te Wairua Pakiki 4 (TWP4) did some art that is based on Pablo Picasso's Cubism art. Pablo Picasso is a great artiest he make a lot of Cubism art. Picasso grew up in Barcelona, showing artistic talent at an early age but died of old age or sickness. In the early 1900s, he moved between France and Spain before finally settling in Paris in 1904. Here are some of his art work.
In cubism you can play around with a lot of shapes. The facial features like your eyes, nose, mouth and ears can be in different shapes and places. Our teacher said "Cubism is that it look as if the painting dropped and cracked, and was rearranged when put back together". when we looked at the picture we noticed that we got to make the mess in to a pieces of art. After our teacher demonstrated and we saw lots of examples it was our turn to draw. Yo can give it a go too!
Step 1:In pencil, draw your head, any shape will work. You can use a mirror or draw from your\imagination.
Step 2:Add your facial features, eyes, nose, mouth, etc. Try to use shapes you noticed in your discussion.
Step 3:Add your hair. What lines can you use to look like hair?. so here my photo.
