Picasso Blue Period Self Portrait 3rd grade art lesson
My 3rd graders viewed Picasso's Blue and Rose period paintings and we discussed how colors can convey emotions. Thanks to Art Projects for Kids https://artprojectsforkids.org/picasso-projects-for-kids/ for the idea. I just changed it a bit.
Students folded their 12" x 9" multimedia paper into fours which acted like a guide to help them draw big! After they drew the self-portrait, they traced it with a black permanent marker, made a pattern with a white crayon on their shirt and background (if they wanted to), and then used liquid watercolors to paint over the entire thing. They turned out beautifully!
