Pablo Picasso

Picasso was born along the southern coast of Spain . Although during his baptism he was given ten names, he signs his painting with just one...Picasso. He began experimenting with a style of painting that reduces images to geometric shapes, sharp edges, and angles. In this style, called Cubism, noses sometimes look like cones, and eyes like triangles. By drawing the human face this way, Picasso was able to show us views from the front and the side at the same time.

Allison loves Picasso. In her art class they got to draw their own rendition of Picasso. Here is her picture.
