Today our Little Hands Art Group met. Rhonda taught the lesson on Pablo Picasso. One thing I learned was that he was much more recent than I thought. In fact he died in 1972. (My lifetime.) He was born in the 1890's. He lived a long life. The book she used for the project information and instructions was:
The Usborne Art Treasury. It is a great resource for kid friendly art projects.
We looked at examples of his art work. She talked about his Blue Period and his Rose Period.
We also learned that he loved clowns.
We did a collage of a clown with curtains and a stage. The kids had alot of fun with this one.
They turned out great.
Here are some close ups.
