Mixed media portraits by Picasso

The style of Picasso portraits is unmistakable: the figures fall apart and are recomposed in his paintings, overturning all the canons and the proportions of the face in the style of Cubism. When students have copied the works of Picasso have not bothered to respect the proportions of the picture, but they have drawn freely, taking inspiration from the image. On a background in collage, prepared by gluing pieces of paper, we have traced the drawing with a black marker, copying it from a work by Picasso. Then we colored with oil pastels, imitating the colors of the original.
