Picasso Art Lesson

This goes back to my student teaching days with Mr. Glenn Berry of Nesbit Elementary in Belmont... great lesson about opposite colors.

My sketch. Split face down middle. Cubism is seeing 2 different perspectives at once. So the face on the left is a side profile view and the face on the right is facing straight ahead.

Look at a color wheel. Opposite colors are vertical to each other (ex: purple and yellow, orange and green, etc.)

Student sample work from 6th grade art explorative

Preview or followup name activity. Draw horizontal line. Draw 2 diagonal lines that are somewhat vertical and steep. Mark out your opposite colors and write block letters over horizontal line. Continue contrasting opposite colors.
