What is CUBISM? THE ART MOVEMENT Early 20th Century Paris, France Who stARTed CUBISM? Pablo Picasso and George Braque Pablo Picasso Cubism Portrait Georges Braque Cubism Portrait To capture the idea of Cubism, try to understand that it is seeing one object from multiple perspectives at one time. Imagine me taking a picture of a student from the front, back, and side. Then I take the tangible pictures of them and cut them up into pieces. I rearrange them in a different order, then draw the new arrangement. There may be 3 eyes, 2 noses, and features from different angles... but that is the point! My definition. Creating like you are seeing something as if it was in a shattered mirror. Things are shifted, titled, and out of order. Notes from my Journal: MANY ARTIST HAVE BEEN INSPIRED BY CUBISM KatoCreative.com Brenda Kato She used to teach High School and Elementary Art like me, but is now a successful freelance artist, children's book illustrator and more. I may like her portraits more than Picassos! Cubism Portraits TEACHER EXAMPLES CUBISM PORTRAIT COLLAGE This is a cubism self portrait collage. I drew my eyes, nose, lips, and things I use often scattered on paper. I drew some on other pieces of paper too & pieces it together, CUBISM PORTRAIT DRAWING 1. On 12 by 18 white paper, divide the area into a variety of sections using a pencil. Have 10-15 areas somewhat evenly drawn out. 2. In each section, draw at least 2 eyes (each from different angle), 1 nose, 1 mouth, and an ear. They can also include parts of hair, neck, chin, cheeks, accessories, but do not need to include body parts below the neck. 3. Emphasize the pencil lines with either a sharpie, other markers, or use a harder line of whatever they are coloring with. This is keep the details they worked so hard on from disappearing after the coloring process. 4. After emphasizing, color using a theme (blue period, rose period, neutral tones, or abstract colors). The above examples of mine is sort of a cubist self-portrait drawing using crazy abstract colors. I tried to keep things in the relative area they are naturally in. This example of mine is using more neutral tones and it is harder to see who the person is in the portrait. This is because the features are more various and jumbled around in the composition. ARE YOU READY? Before you begin, practice each facial feature seperately.
