Famous Artist Unit: Picasso

We have continued our famous artist unit with learning about Pablo Picasso. We talked about his interest in drawing symbols of kindness and peace and how proud he would be of Wilson for working on our acts of kindness!

After looking at Picasso's painting "Hands with Flowers" the students created their own! 


Some students worked on tracing their hands and adding flowers with paint or tissue paper. 




4th and 5th grade students worked on sketching a hand. They quickly noticed how tricky this task was but after a few drafts of their hands in their sketchbook, their progress was incredible! Here are a few of the sketches from their sketchbooks: 


Their final projects ranged quite a bit since they had the choice on what materials to use as well as what exactly that hand they drew was holding. Here are a few: 





Finally, some 4th & 5th grade students transformed their art into digital art pieces!
