PICASSO PORTRAITS
Description:
Using the reduction process in printmaking, sixth grade students create an abstract
portrait inspired by Pablo Picasso.
Student Learning Goals/Outcomes:
As a result of instruction, students will...
• apply knowledge of Cubism in the abstraction of facial features and the human head.
• learn how to create a 3-part reduction print.
• use the reduction process to print an abstract portrait composition, focusing on the
elements and principles of line, shape, and pattern.
Review:
Students really enjoyed the reduction print process. They were excited by the materials,
and understood how critical it was to follow the procedures. After demonstration, students
practiced how to draw a realistic human head and face. They enjoyed making the final
portrait an abstraction, and drew from the lesson about Picasso where they saw his
evolution of style and technique in portraiture.
