Cubist Chalk Drawings
So far we have learned about the elements of art, Line and Value. Now we will use both of them along with SHAPE to create a cubist composition. Cubism is an incredibly influential art movement led by artists Pablo Picasso and George Braque. Watch the following video as a background on Cubism. After testing on Tuesday and Wednesday, we will regroup as a whole class to start a drawing project based on the concepts of cubism.
You will be creating a large cubist composition by separating your paper into shapes and lines and filling in each shape with chalk pastel, using value and blending.
