Fifth Grade Cubist Instruments





Fifth grade finished their project discussing value scales and Cubism and the artist Pablo Picasso.  We first sketched a musical instrument, inspired by many of Picasso's instrument paintings.  The students then created a stencil they would use to help break up their drawing into many different shapes and sizes.

After creating their drawings, students traced their stencil all over their artwork providing the shapes for the values.  Two colors were selected to use for the background and their drawing's subject (the instrument).
