Picasso P4a
Primary 4a have been learning how to draw self portraits. We have been looking closely at the artist Picasso and how we could create an image in his unique style. We tried to create a self-portrait and side profile in one image. We used chalks and developed our skills on blending to create a desired effect. We were particularly focussing on using hot and cold colours to create a contrasting image.
