Picasso Snowmen














Kindergarten students read the book, "When Pigasso met Mootise" by Nina Laden and discussed the similarities and differences between artwork made by Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse. Students noticed that Picasso like to use geometric shapes, especially squares. They learned that this style of art is called cubism. Students emulated Picasso’s style by using only squares in their entire snowman picture. They even outlined each square with a black line, just like Picasso liked to do in his artwork.
