Visual Art Rubric: Part 1

This piece of art was made by Pablo Picasso, it is a portrait of Marie-Thérèse Walter. In this piece, Picasso evidently uses line, shape, and colour which are few of the elements of art. He uses many strange and interesting lines in the painting that are mostly straight on the face and on the background, as well as some strange colours on the face that give us the idea of a confident face that he took from real life. Speaking of real life, Picasso takes things from real life and gives them a very strange shape in his paintings.

Picasso used to draw realistic paintings very well ever since his teenage years. He painted very well, but he was an explorer and decided to paint differently. He wanted to push the boundaries of how we saw the world and make his paintings look different yet interesting.
