Afterschool Art #5 🎨 Our artist of the month is Pablo Picasso! We learned a little bit about how he used color to create meaning and his cubism art movement! Then we designed disco balls and cubism portraits! Mrs. Hamilton made copies of the disco balls and there will be a group disco ball mural in the hallway in the near future! Woot woot! 🪩
