Picasso
In an inspiring art session by Mrs McKenna, P5 explored the vibrant and abstract style of Pablo Picasso, channelling their creativity to create self-portraits that reflected their unique identities. Using a variety of materials—such as colored paper and paint—they experimented with bold colors and geometric shapes, much like Picasso did in his masterpieces.
Each child began by discussing what symbols represented them personally. This reflection process allowed them to connect more deeply with their art. As they crafted their portraits, they incorporated these personal symbols into their designs, adding meaning to their work.
The room was filled with laughter and excitement as they shared stories about their symbols and the artistic choices they made.
